Note to Council... A little weed clearing would be great ;-)

The base layer is on!
We have started to put the first coat of the base layer on. People on the community payback scheme have done a great job so far. We hope to complete the base coat by the end of tomorrow, weather permitting.

Ready For Lift-Off
As you can see, we picked up the materiels for the base coat last week...
The good people from Dulux were very generous with their time and products, but sadly, we were caught sneaking out with the dog ;-)

Meeting 2nd March
Thank you to all those who attended especially Shaun from Dulux. Our resident artist has now got most of the designs and is in the process of coupling them all together. The application of paint is to happen from May to June and we hope to get community payback to apply the base colour. More news to come👍

Many designs but one piece of art.
We have spoken to many of the schools and institutions and I am pleased that so many have their designs ready. Some have even held poster design competitions.
The problem that was discussed is achieving continuity through each design across the wall. Fortunately we have some artists among us to cast an eye over the designs and make some important decisions on what will work and what will not.
Roll on 2nd March. In the meantime we are having a" before" photo shoot this friday (23rd Feb) at the wall so that we can send it on to Dulux. After the 2nd March when we have decided on colours I will pick the paints and materials up from Dulux.
Here's some inspiration...
