Lake Worth Street Painting Festival Breaks Records

For the first time at the Lake Worth Street Painting Festival, I painted instead of chalked.  This was my 12th time at this event.  I was planning to chalk a large 3D anamorphic piece, but was asked three days before the event to step in and do a mural on the side of a shipping container, since one of the other artists couldn't get to Florida in time.  I had to come up with a totally different idea that would span the 20' x 8' x 8' area.  Sponsor was Bessenroth Builders, a local builder that builds homes in the containers.  Cyndi Kostylo and Cass Womack worked on the other container next to me. 

I decided to pull up some art I was working on my tablet.  I combined an illustration of my daughter from a selfie she had sent me with her new white hair.  I added a paisley background and a rose that I had been working on, and then added an appropriate saying.  Much of the street art in Miami has a message, so I felt it was appropriate to include a positive, art related message.

It took about 16 hours, with Craig helping to prime and grid the area.  The surface was constructed of masonite (rough side out) screwed onto the surface.  Not sure if they will coat the art and keep it for a while.  Unfortunately, masonite is not very durable in wet weather.
