The City of West Palm Beach, FL is putting together guidelines for murals to be submitted to the Mayor's Office. Anyone who has suggestions of what should (or should not) be included please email me. thanks

I mural should be designed, painted, maintained by the community where it is being created. It should reflect the quality of life the community want. Any profession should only be an advisor. This is the expereience I have gained through doing 53 murals world. Doing it this way means the community is proud of its creation, it will not be damaged and will be maintained.
