The Jazz Masters

Mural

 10 Johnson Avenue, Indianapolis, IN, 46219

The previous owners of the Irvington Theatre asked artist Dar Parsons to do the mural.  They wanted a mural with a music theme and provided the paint and a scissor lift.  Dar bought 50 black markers and used a projector at night to put the images on the wall.  The rough brick exterior destroyed all of the marker due to the many grooves.  Working on Saturdays for 8 hours at a time, Dar raced to complete the project before winter and used only a small paint brush to paint the entire surface.  The mural is dedicated to the Irvington Community.

Note:  There is a riddle in the piece.  A number on the painting is a clue to solve it.
