I was so honoured to be selected as the artist to lead a community involved painting. I came up with a vision, and then just let people play…after I told them what to do. It was great the diversity of people who stopped and helped out. Some took much more coaxing than others, but was well worth it. Some people said they were not creative at all, but easily added dots to the piece. I could hear people walking by later and saying “I painted that swoosh!”. It was so much fun!
The piece will be on display in the lobby of the Sheldon M. Chumir Health Centre (right off of 4th Ave). I was so pleased also to see so many familiar faces of friends and family who gathered to take part in this public art. And of course my on-going appreciation of Bill who stood by me the entire time, and put together this fun video.
