Gym mural

Completed 2004; soon after my 18th birthday.

This is a mural I did during my final year in high school with a few other students. This mural was completed in two months, whereas most of the other murals in the school at the time took over a year. Grade 12 was my favourite year in highschool; having completed most of my credits I had more time for extra curricular activities, so I joined the art club and painted this mural. Unfortunately first year in university was not very nice treat, and missing the good old high school days, I visited the high school one day after my first year was over…

This mural was located outside the gym. Notice how I said “was”; when I went to see the mural it was vandalised; parts have been scratched away and hair was drawn on some faces and other areas. As of now it doesn’t exist anymore. Suppose this location was one were that type of actrivity was more prone to happen; in was a dark spot on the grounds level in front of the vending machines; other murals in the school were on the upper floors just outside of classrooms.

On the bright side; while I was working on this one day, a visitor passed by and offered me a summer job:

    Lovely mural. It’s very hard to go from somewhere and something we know and have mastered to something completely new—and be on the bottom of everything! Although it looks like Earth, university is a completely different planet totally removed in time and space from family and friends. It’s hard for everybody, and apparently you’‘ve done very well in the next stages of your life.
