Mural Painting!

This Sunday I assisted with the painting of a massive mural designed by classmate George Addy that will be displayed in Leeds train station for the next three weeks. It was absolutely freezing and took us 13 hours, but so much fun and great experience to see how painting something so large could actually be done in the space of a day. George decided on a paint-by-numbers system which worked perfectly - if I ever get commissioned for a mural, I now know what to do!

The mural has been given pride of place in the next Independent Leeds magazine, which is great exposure for both George and us as the painters. They also followed us all on Instagram and gave us a tagged shoutout, which in return gave me a weird influx of followers - it just goes to show how pitching in on live briefs and social media can expand my professional network.
