        @tombarrettillo Thanks man! Everyone at the festival was really awesome, a bunch of people stopped to talked to me because they liked it so much. It was a great confidence booster.

                    Really good! I am about to do my first outdoor mural on a concrete wall at my son's school. Hoping it turns out as good as yours!

                          @chip-valecek I started with just some big cans of latex based paints that they provided me and then used some acrylics that I brought myself for areas where I wanted brighter colors.

                            @ben-migliore Thanks! And perhaps, I might paint another mural eventually.

                              @bnewman Thank you! Biggest thing I learned from painting this one. Don't forget about the fundamentals just because it's giant. Have a solid plan and stick to it! I believe in you!

                                    What was your process from taking the idea from paper to the wall? Or did you do all your preliminary measuring and ideas right on the wall?
