One more thing...

Remember that... from Columbo... right before he called out the bad guy for what he'd done and how, he would always head for the door, turn around, and say, "one more thing." Anyway, that's what that was all about.


As for things more "wall" related, I have for you a shwack of photos. "Shwack" is, of course, a technical term, meaning "lot" or "many".

The finished product.



Love the aerial photo - thank you once again Beaupre; your Skyjack served us well.


This is Tammi. Tammi is wonderful.


Here are some of the artists who worked on the mural.


Here are some words, which attest to the above.


This is a monkey butt.


Julia is a painter now.


Steve works on some finishing touches.


Bill was a very dedicated, hard-working volunteer... not to mention a lovely person to be around.


Franko - master hypnotist and magician. He proceeded to hammer that nail into his face. For serious. It was incredible.


This is a cute puppy that I saw one day. She was a total ham for the camera.


Who rocks the party? Perhaps Martin Luther King. Or, perhaps Dawn and Bob, who painted this wonderful rendering.


And isn't this beautiful?

They turned out great! I didn't have a chance to see the Nicollet Field mural done before we left. She's a beaut. Oh and the puppy's name is Heidi!

hello, i was wondering what paints you would use for a historic wall sign restoration, i have an old linen factory sign needing restored and have to keep to older looking colours, (off whites, dark greys/non gloss) The minneapolis sign is almost spot on for background colour and the yellows used, really the whole thing is in the same vein, if you get this could you email me please; mrcscott@hotmail.co.uk dig your work, all the best, peace c scott
