The Big Paint
The sun shone brightly on Saturday as 100 artists turned out at the Whanganui War Memorial Hall forecourt in their painting gear to get stuck in to creating a 7.5x5m masterpiece. The Big Paint, part of the Real Whanganui Literary Festival, saw 100 artists and non-artists roll up their sleeves and put brush to canvas to recreate Leigh Mitchell-Anyon's composite photograph from pre-dawn to dusk of the Wanganui landscape, featuring the Sarjeant Gallery and Mt Ruapehu.
