A mural in the making

A mural in the making

Worth scrolling down to see the final shot

Last week I noticed the start of a mural on 45th Street near 1st Ave, and thought it would be a good chance to track the progress of mural and see how it is done.

The mural should be completed tomorrow I think as there is a walk around the 5 Murals in this project at 1PM tomorrow that work permitting I hope to join.
And yes I did mention 5 Murals I found out this afternoon this is one of five murals in collaboration with the ILO which is celebrating its 100th Year this year and Streetart for Mankind

This mural was not quite finished when I saw it at lunchtime today and got my last shot, but with the walk around the art tomorrow I am guessing it will be by then, and I wanted to share this tonight, the other pieces are all cool as well and I will share shots of them as well in the future

Now onto the mural, here it is when I first saw it last Thursday

And as I said above I will get shots of all the murals in this collection and share those as well, its nice to see some new art coming up in Midtown East, and I did get shots of the other one's today but will get shots of them all without the cherry Pickers in the way.

#3 this post is unusual for me its not often I take shots and share them on the same day,


unless stated otherwise all photos used in my posts are taken and owned by myself, if you wish to use any of my images please contact me.
