4th Quarter Bar, Terre Haute, Indiana

A TRIP THROUGH TIME
Upon consulting with the client, owner of the 4th Quarter Bar, it was concluded that he wanted a historical theme on the exterior wall of his bar. I kept with a bar theme but took the design from the 1920s to current day from left to right. The biggest challenge of this mural was the surface of the aging brick. I met the challenge with a power washing and primer basecoat. Upon completion, a protective sealer was applied, which is the case with all of my murals. This mural was executed in 2003 and is holding up well, even on the old brick. Unfortunately, vandals threw pink paint on a large section of the mural, but, thanks to the protective coating, it cleaned off nicely.
