STORIES: First Mural

My dad took this photo of me in 1990 in front of my first mural, painted on a construction hoarding in Bracebridge, Ontario (click to enlarge). The town asked young local residents and cottage-goers like me to come out and paint a section along the main strip during the summer. The scene I created depicted the name of the comic strip, Bank St. Kids, and the characters I was drawing at the time. The only thing I regret is the mullet. I’ve found peace with the decision to use the “Sun-In” product to get strawberry blonde hair that summer.
