PICTURES:  redemption
 
 
this is a mural that was designed and painted by myself and 3 other teens with the mentoring of ruby chacon! facilitated by baddog, it was made for neighborworks, an organization that helps transform neighborhoods by getting the community involved. this mural represents people coming together and caring for each other. thanks to the hard work of neighborworks and the involvement of the community, this neighborhood has gone from having one of the highest crime rates in the area to the lowest!
