This wall is the retaining wall on Green Street next to the BB&T Parking Lot. Thanks to BB&T for the use of their water during the cleaning. It's been powerwashed by AquaPressure - thanks to Deward Ray. And then Charlie Hiner of BCH finished up. I have to admit, Mr. Ray's equipment was a LOT easier than Charlie's. So we definitely appreciate Charlie's early arrival to finish up before traffic arrived!
Above is a section of before and after just to give you an idea how dirty it was. Keep returning. We'll be priming it with grey paint. Then Ezra Berger, local artist and wall muralist, will be creating one of his beautiful murals with volunteers at the ready. We'll keep you posted!
Thanks to Allen Philippe and Al Boehly for assistance with Primer - so far 7 gallons of it! (I thought I had a photo of the wall with just primer... but... darn it... I don't)
Ezra starts the sketches....
Here are some photos of the wall in progress. Enjoy!
Keep checking back!
