Change 4 Good’s Mural Making Process
After the students had determined their mural image and had it approved by their principal and superintendent, the image had to be sketched onto the wall. This wall was chosen because of its high visibility. Students and CPRAT members sanded and painted the wall.
It took a few days to paint the mural (but months to plan). The students had a mural unveiling for their school in October, 2010. They received awards for their hard work and leadership.
The finished mural.
Students and CPRAT members sanded and painted the wall.
Then, a grid was drawn onto the wall so that the image could more easily be sketched onto the wall, in the appropriate squares. This was done in chalk, so that errors could be more easily fixed.
Next, students inked the chalk. This is done by mixing paint and water, and then tracing over the chalk.
By the end of the day, the mural was completely inked.
Next, r2row taught the students how to mix paint to get desired colors.
Students then began to paint the mural.
