My first mural update #2

No alt provided
alt text
This a couple of days ago. Nearing completion. It’s one of the few shots where the scissor lift isn’t in the way. Since then, I’ve done a lot more work and added lots of lines. Today I decided it to be finished. Tomorrow we’re going to add a top coat.

And on Saturday, there is going to be an official opening and neighborhood party, because two other murals in my neighborhood accidentally have been finished in the last two months as well. So we decided to team up our festivities.

If you’re in Rotterdam on Saturday, June 13, drop by at the corner of Assendelftstraat and Adamshofstraat. 15 PM sharp!

On Google Maps, you can still get a glimpse of what the previous rather dilapidated mural looked like. Nobody was happy with it:

I love how it rises naturally from the grass.
I'm sure the people in the neighbourhood will love it.
Well done you.

It's beautiful. I wish it was in my neighborhood.

@joost thanx! I have to add I did take a little the most favorable spot to take a picture from. If you stand right in front of it a rather small tree is in the way. I do hope it won’t get too big 🙂

It’s so cute because there’s a school on the square as well, and every day these primary school kids come by and they all look at the mural for minutes and minutes, inspecting all the creatures and flowers I have put into it. It’s super rewarding.

@waa aaaahhh, I just imagined the little kids looking at it and it's so great.

A++ work! it's shaping up beautifully. love your art, and love seeing it out in the world like this.

also, as a bonus, i was swiveling about the google street view and saw a li'l black cat on the sidewalk 🐈‍⬛🥹

Now that I see it in context of its surroundings, it's even more lovely <3

@nikkuneko it’ll be interesting to see how quickly Google street view updates.

1. Lovely!
2. The mention of scissor lift reminded me that my museum designer wife just purchased one of these: https://mltshp.com/p/1RRB2

This is wonderful!

Fantastic! And, yeah, the old mural - and surrounds - needed this.
So much better.
Congratulations. I hope this leads to more commissions.

Epic, wonderfully integrated but it also seems quite different compared to other murals I've seen. Really lovely complement to your style

One day I'll see it and have Kapsalon here also ❤️

@poorusher thank you sooooo much! The kapsalon will be on me! ❤️

I’m so happy for you! And more than a little in awe.

@poorusher no no, resist the lure of the kapsalon!
Maybe buy an Edam cheese instead? (Infamous red cheese ball)

@joost we've talked about this

@poorusher @joost I just googled a bit and it seems like there is just one single rather bad mural of a kapsalon in an outskirt of Rotterdam (Spijkenisse). It would be so much fun to make a gigantic and glorious one somewhere in the middle of town! (on top of that, this is the kind of thing that you could probably actually find funding for)
joost 7 hours ago
@poorusher I see I'm consistent in my lack of appreciation for kapsalon. :-)
