Discover Cowboy in a Bottle, a Coca-Cola mural created by Bailee Green, a.k.a. BAILEETHEKID, in McAlester, Oklahoma. Inspired by Oklahoma’s agricultural history, wide-open ranches, and enduring cowboy spirit, the artwork was created to reflect the stories and culture of the local community.
The mural also incorporates a Coca-Cola bottle as a nod to the history of McAlester’s bottling plant. Bailee designed the work to leave room for interpretation, allowing Oklahomans and visitors to discover their own stories within the artwork and create new memories around the public space.
