On-site chalk mural advertising for the Viva NashVegas Radio show that takes place at Handy Hardware in Franklin, Tennessee.  Technical integrity was compromised here some by some very weathered boards, but these still came out pretty good.  In the future all lettering will be outlined in black to make it easy to read from the street.

I am available for on-site chalk mural work in the middle Tennessee area for shows, events, or just every day business advertising.  cj @ customchalk.com - 615-482-2839
