Sunday saw the first stirrings of life on the bright white wall behind the Julian Dixon Library. Artists and volunteers gathered on one of the hottest days of the year to get started on the renewal of the Postcards from Ballona mural. 
First the wall was measured and marked off with the use of a level. Then the lines were snapped both horizontally and vertically to form squares. 
Lori Escalera instructed the volunteers on how to follow the design when drawing on the wall.
Then the fun began as volunteers paired up to draw on the wall with markers. No need to worry about mistakes as a pot of white gesso was nearby to cover up any errors.
And so the first day came to an end with a job well done.

Tomorrow: painting!
