Let Us Spray

I haven't seen this mural in person yet but from the photos it looks beautiful.

From the Washington Post...

Two stories high and as long as a city block, it sprawls over a crumbly retaining wall behind a brown shopping plaza in Northeast Washington, near a black chain-link fence tangled with barbed wire, surrounded by an ash-colored asphalt parking lot.

Over the past three weeks, the five artists and 40 apprentices from the city's Summer Youth Employment Program spray-painted in both the midday August heat and the glow of car headlights at night. They whitewashed the wall, chalked up a grid, projected images to sketch, tugged scaffolding, slapped on face masks, showered color over concrete, then sat on a curb to soak up the progress. The D.C. Commission on the Arts and Humanities partnered with a nonprofit artist collective to transform the wall and engage local youth.

BUT there is always at least one person whose grey matter hasn't developed beyond the size of a pea...
