After I thought the project was finished and the scaffolds removed, someone asked me if the figure in the center was a girl... It was meant to be a man, so back up I went to add a beard onto him (and make a few other corrections while I was at it).
Signing the mural was a task of its own. I knew my signature would be seen, so how did I sign it? Would I use my full name or would I sign it the same as a canvas, with my first initial and last name. After careful consideration I decided to sign the way I have always signed my paintings: Jlamons
In order to protect the mural from pollution and dust in the environment, I varnished it a few days later with artist's quality varnish (also from Golden). The difference in varnishing the mural versus a canvas was in size only. I used the same method in varnishing the mural as I would my canvas. I worked from right to left and was able to complete it in a few hours.
