Well, it’s been a while! Sorry for the lack of updates, so here’s some fresh info:

Just over a year ago, the Edmonton Small Press Association found out that they had been granted funds by the Edmonton Arts Council to create a large-scale community mural they proposed, here in Edmonton, with the talented Luke Ramesy and I collaborating as lead artists.  We were, and are, totally excited!

Fast forward to now: earlier this week Luke finally landed in Edmonton and the project officially began!  The image will find it’s home on the John Howard Society’s 105st and 100ave location (east facing wall) in the downtown regions of the city. The JHS is are also very much a part of this project; not only have they donated the wall, they are also providing us with cozy workplace facilities and friends. We expect the mural to take approximately 3-4 weeks, weather pending, etc…

The process: I will keep you updated with mural’s growth, indeed. Currently the wall’s surface needs to be prepared so the paint primer will stick. That could be a few days away, but like I said, will keep you posted.
