HANDS-ON MURALS
These are murals created with the public using a unique technique of laying transparent paints over a detailed underpainting.
This technique allows children and less experienced painters to apply paint liberally
over broad areas while still retaining the details of the underpainting. Also, some patterning techniques create beautiful effects.
At the end of the painting sessions, some details are enhanced by the artist.
Most of the murals were created by elementary school children, but a few were created during festivals.
