I would like to talk about a piece of street art that I created together with my best friend about a year ago. It might sound a bit unusual, but a restaurant owner in the city centre actually invited us to paint one of the exterior walls of the building. The reason was that the restaurant had large and plain white walls and they wanted something eye-catching to attract more people. So since my friends Shalala and I both have a strong interest in drawing and painting, we immediately agreed because after some research we came across an image on the Pinterest that depicted a typical French street scene. It perfectly matched the atmosphere of the restaurant and gave people the feeling of being in France. The whole project took us around 15 days to complete and it required a lot of patience and teamwork. In the end, the restaurant manager was extremely satisfied with the result and rewarded us financially of course, while also complimenting us on our professionalism. Even though whenever I walk past that restaurant, it brings back very positive memories. What made the experience truly special wasn’t just the artwork itself but the time I spent creating something meaningful with my best friend and experience I genuinely value.
