Nuggets honor Black History Month: Recognizing local artist DeTour

Thomas “DeTour” Evans strives to be different.

As a result, the unique murals the Denver-based Evans creates certainly standout. His work has been described as “playful, multimedia and interactive” and art that “defies easy categorization.”

Evans grew up a military brat as his family moved around during his childhood. Eventually, the family settled in Denver, where Evans went to school for business (though he obviously continued to hone his craft in the arts). His passion and experience with art began during his childhood, as he used it as a connecting factor to make friends in whichever area he was living in at the time.
