It's All in the Details

At the start of the mural interns started with rollers and 4" brushes, but as we continue to fill in the details we have moved down to 1" and .5" detail brushes.  By starting big and working their way down, interns can get more comfortable with their tools.  This also allows them to continue to refine their work as they add each layer and see the wall as a whole before they dedicate a large chunk of time to add details on a 6 inch flower, which might be the wrong color or shape.

The mural continues to receive positive feedback and excitement among the people working at The Charity Guild, patrons and passerbys.  While people wait for the food pantry to open, they are delighted and entertained by the colorful flowers that bring them "warm feelings" as the enter and "summer year round" to enjoy as they wait.
