It's coming together!!

This week Pat & friends got together to see the panels layed out on the floor in preparation for our installation meeting this week. Very exciting!

check out our posters!

I know this may be a bit redundant since these posters are advertising this very blog, but I just spent forever making them and thought they were cool.... so I'm posting them!

Layout sketches

Here is a photo of Pat's concept sketches for one of the murals, just so you get an idea of how all these wood panels will be pieced together. The images are taken from photographs, sketches and drawings from our workshops (you may have been at one!)

The order of the images is not set in stone as we are constantly rearranging and adding images as we go along.

Some interesting images

Here is an image of the first Sunset Community Center. We have another image of Sunset we originally thought was the old Sunset, but turns out it was actually a concept sketch and was never built!
A gravestone with text we may use in the mural.

Varnishing Day!

Here we are varnishing away!
Zee, Pat & Dawn apply the second coat of varnish which goes on to protect the image.

Painting and Organizing

This is Jane, a friend of ours helping with painting process. In this photo she is checking out our piles of wood a.k.a our organizational system. More painting and varnishing to come this week. We hope to be finished this stage by the end of the month.

More of our process

Hello!
Here are some more photos from the studio and some shots of some of the images we are currently painting onto the wood panels. Do you see any photos or people you recognize?



Below is a photo Zee painting the small pieces of wood which will be laid ontop of the larger squares to give the mural some depth.The images came from the our participants of various workshops held since April.
