Today was the final day of the City of Vancouver's "ReStart" mural program. Over 2 weeks, 18 community members and youths participated in the discussion of the subject of graffiti, it's definition, impacts and rewards...with the design process resulting in the final production on this 78 foot mural today..Most of the group had little to no experience in using spraypaint, but with the help of myself and two other artist mentors (Girl23, ekons) the result was very satisfying and a less than pretty part of the neighborhood got a facelift.
