Thanks to @woodcreativellc for answering my questions: “I used regular exterior paint and sketched it out with chalk.”

"Imagination. That’s the theme of the first-ever ColorBlock mural project in downtown Eau Claire. Imagination has also played a role in how organizers and artists approached the project in such uncertain times – they had to pivot from their initial plan to have 50 murals along the 600 block of South Barstow Street to starting smaller, with just five. But the profusion of murals in downtown Eau Claire during the pandemic speaks to the imagination – and determination – of local public artists."

“I hope that my mural makes people smile and gives them a moment to forget about all of the craziness going on in the world right now,” said artist Jenna Wood, owner of Wood Creative LLC. “It has been a rough year so far, and I know this will be one of the highlights for me, so I hope I can share with them that love and happiness when they see my mural.”
