These are our two mural sketches. Feel free to tell us which one you like the best or what you like from either one of them. We already have our final sketch and have already traced it on the wall. We actually do not want anyone (other than Janet Peden, who lives in Bay City, and the members of The Boy's and Girl's Club) to see the mural before our final presentation. We believe that it will be a lot more impacting to see the final mural on the wall versus seeing it in a picture.
Yesterday when we visited Bay City we traced all of the figures and began to taping the inside of them. The taping is so that when we paint the background we won't get any paint on the other figures. When we began to trace it was difficult to see the figure since the projector wasn't well focused. Then we had technical difficulties, which was one of the worst things ever! The figures wouldn't appear on the wall! Thanks to Elber Reyes, which we had to call for help, we were able to fix the problem. Taping had to be by far the hardest and most annoying thing to do. Since a lot of the figures are rounded off we had to also round the tape. We were very lucky to get help from my mom, sister, and Janet Peden.
We plan to go to Bay City again this coming up Sunday. We will begin to paint the mural completely and hope to finish by Thursday. We will be back on campus by Friday, February 18 in order to give a few sneak peaks of our mural... but not the complete thing until our presentation in May.
