Wil Yee: Mural Update

Hello everyone, 
I had the pleasure of working with Wil this weekend on the public art mural that he is creating on the back wall of Composite High School. Here are a few pictures of the project to date, please be sure to swing by Comp next Monday morning at 10 am to take part in the ribbon cutting ceremony.
