Background to mural creation:
Asked to create something nice for the community, Rosalie set to work, first preparing and then transforming a bank wall into a look at old Waiuku and country life. With a work history of being a freelance artist and a number of mural credits to her name, the mural was the largest and most difficult Rosalie has ever created. The original bumpy texture of the wall was used as inspiration and to enhance the painting, a clever way to turn a negative into a benefit.
