With a team of 10 artists working tirelessly for three days to bring it to life Wardleys daughter served as the inspiration, behind this artwork.”Despite enduring some rain it seems like it will stick around for at another week ” Wardley mentioned.
“While it may not have an impact every little bit helps. If we all do our part perhaps we can create some change.”
