Edmonton Sportscasters Mural

This sports broadcasting mural is about legendary Edmonton sportscasters Rod Phillips, Brian Hall, John Short, Ernie Afaganis and Al McCann proved to be a boyishly fun project that I will never forget. It all started when I won a bid for the “Sportscasters” mural with the Giants of Edmonton ; a program with the City of Edmonton where CHED radio station listeners voted which local icons would transfer into local artwork on local walls. From the first meeting I knew this would be a unique project, when I met Brain Hall and quickly realized what a great character he is. Brian helped me to realize that Edmonton is quite wealthy in terms of athletes and sports enthusiasm. Once my sketches were received another meeting was set, with all 5 sportscasters. These gentlemen were some of the most efficient, easy going, and sassiest people I have ever had the pleasure of working with.
