The walk there

My area is around 12 feet wide and will spill onto the black above the portraits. Heres how day one went for us.

Last night Sheldon and i primed all the windows so they’d be ready to go today

Day one around clean up. Sheldon’s piece far left. Travis’s piece middle. My piece  on the right

Half the mural from across the street. tomorrow is going to be a long day trying to get this entire thing finished

More pictures tomorrow with hopefully a finished piece!
