Light and color has arrived in Ballard: a handful of local artists have transformed downtown Ballard into a mural-filled landscape.
The mural project was organized by local artists and the Ballard Alliance, who wanted to bring some cheer to the boarded up shops and bars in the neighborhood.
“The intent of the program is to not only discourage graffiti and property damage, but to also brighten our Ballard storefronts with artwork and instill a sense of community spirit and hope during the midst of this crisis,” Stewart told My Ballard last week.
Much of the artwork was made possible with donated paint and supplies from Cole Palea, owner of Novo Painting and Property Services.

I think this is fantastic. What a creative way to cover these boarded up businesses.
Amazing. This looks too attractive. I am an art lover person and I have more than 10 paintings and all I bought from Ritecoupons.com. I love this creative idea and I will propose the idea to paint office walls like this to my partners.
I first saw some of these works on Instagram. I think this is the perfect place to announce yourself to a wider audience. And although I’m not a very active Instagram user, sometimes I post some of my work. Recently my page was hacked, and I did my best to get it back. This source made it real https://social-me.co.uk/ And I got back access to my account when I had already lost hope for it.
It’s great that you have the opportunity to share your projects with a larger audience. And social media helps a lot. I’m trying to develop my profile and create interesting content. But at the initial stages, this is not easy. That’s why I use this source https://volgers-kopen.com/tiktok-volgers-kopen/ It helps me get more likes on Tiktok and get more attention for my work.
