Jordan Stranger: "The client, Wayfinders, wanted to participate and had asked for me to create two Murals
based on any theme I thought appropriate.
When it came to decide I thought of what they offer in their programming. They are a
community-based mentorship and outreach program that helps high-school aged students.
I thought that what they are doing is helping kids grow and succeed, so I chose the theme
of 'Growth' to focus on the art workshop portion."
"The Murals had a similar theme but I wanted to expand on it. The Eagle Mural is called
'Unconditional Love (Photo 2)'. The eagle represents Love, and if we choose to do
something with our skills and talents, we need to do our best to love what we do so we
can succeed."
"The Mural with the hand is titled 'Warrior' (Photo 3). A warrior is someone who goes ahead of the
pack. They are responsible for others and their well-being. When I see the youth, I see
our future warriors, ready and willing to venture into the unknown to ensure our future
generations."
