Colourful Mural like a Giant Colouring-in Book – Mandela Day

Roscoe Masters, the head of art at Sea Point High School decided to paint giant make- believe characters on a garden wall outside our foster home in Westlake.

He started teaching art to these four children in hard lockdown last year and thought this would be a great gift for them ahead of Mandela Day next weekend!
“I challenged them to paint the wall in 67 minutes” he says with a chuckle.

“I think they really loved the experience and are very proud of their bright, new mural. It has certainly received quite a bit of attention from the community. I was part of the World Cup mural group that painted 18 bus shelters on the Cape Flats for the 2010 Soccer World Cup so I have had a little practice!” describes Roscoe.

Roscoe is often involved in community projects. One of the most rewarding being the Orange Art Project.
