picture or painting?

down at my work, seattle's own and world renown Eric Grohe is in the process of painting an amazingly realistic mural on the side of our tech shop. the painting is supposed to take 4 months to finish, and after the first month its already tricking countless onlookers.

i could go on and on about how amazing the mural is already, but like they say, a picture is worth a thousand words. in this case, a picture is probably worth a thousand more pictures. so i'll start it off by showing you guys how it first started



and heres how it looks 1 month later





none of this is actually sticking out, all painted!


notice how the very right side of the wall is made of brick (which they arent going to be painting over at all). the left side of the wall is not made of brick, but to make the mural centered, the left portion of the wall will be painted to look like bricks!
