I am so excited to be able to share some of the more than 40 murals painted on walls in the area of Richmond known as The Fan.
"The Richmond Mural Project is a yearly event with the goal of creating over 100 murals by world renown talent in the first 5 years alone. The recurrence and solidification of the project throughout this time will establish Richmond as a landmark destination for internationally recognized murals and will create exposure for the city, establishing it as a premier art destination."
John and I went on an expedition this morning and tracked down a number of them, some from this year, others from last year. I'll be posting some of my favorites for the next few days.
PS This was my name for the mural. It didn't have a title. http://richmondmuralproject.wordpress.com/
I am amazed at how talented these artists are. It's hard enough to draw something to scale, let alone 100 times its actual size. Looking forward to seeing the others.
Looks like the car came to the rescue and tried to lift up this poor hurt creature. no, what I meant to say is that this project is a wonderful idea and I'm looking forward to seeing more artistic displays.
