TOFE + VISION = SUCCESS!

---

On Saturday, September 26, 2015, Jarvis Street in the heart of Fort Erie's Bridgeburg Historic District was transformed into a gateway of great food, great music and great retail shopping opportunities.  

This event was delicately organized and immensely detailed by Fort Erie's Bridgeburg Business Improvement Association (BBIA). The Association set out to showcase what Fort Erie has to offer and the Bridgeburg Historic District.  As the day went on into the evening, the BBIA met that goal. 

Two Stages welcomed you with live music on a Main Stage and a great local Performance Stage sponsored by The Fort Erie Art's Council on the other.  In front of Regional Limousine (Old Fire Station #2) was the Kidz Zone and a day of memories for all.

It was the Performance Stage that Kerry was very excited to contribute artistic thought in the creation of an atmosphere full of fun and colour. Proudly created and organized by members of the Fort Erie Arts Council.

The Event: In full swing!

The day was a huge success and Mother Nature was on our side!  With the sun beating down and blue skies above, Bridgeburg was awakened and welcomed by thousands of people.  Below are a few pictures of not only the finished mural but people enjoying the day's events. 

While the mural is complete and the event has come and gone, please feel free to peruse this page and the making of the mural.  Thanks for viewing!

Final Stages: Mission Complete! 

---

With tag team partners Michelle and Donna working in shifts, this amazing 14 x 10 foot mural is now complete.

If you want to see the final project in it's entirety, please visit us at the Fort Erie Art's Council Performance Arts Stage in the Municipal parking lot (Central & Jarvis) at the Taste of Fort Erie on Saturday, September 26th from noon till 6:00 pm.  

Great performances all day long with the battle of the high school's car graffiti contest in between.  Should be quite the show in itself!

Day/night two: Daisies blooming, bodies dancing

---

Great day/night of painting so much so, the hours passed too quick. 

It took a great deal of time and patience to make the daisies pop, bodies dance and the hearts start to beat. 

You won't want to miss this mural on the Performance Art Stage at the Taste of Fort Erie in less that a week!

Day One: Custom blending:

---

Great detail was put into custom blending a bright blue background.  

After mixing ratio's of blues, greens and white, then adding a bit more green then, a little dab of white, the perfect blend for a background was achieved. 

With brushes in hand, the base coat of the project has been applied with a second coat to follow.
