How to...

Graffiti-fy a wall, the Riverkids way (at the Alexandra Family House, 22-23 Oct 07).

A special thanks to the people from Tiny Toones. :)

Step 1:

Using a marker, sketch out an outline of your desired mural design. Following that, spray paint the outline.

Step 2:

Add some colour to the mural. Be careful to stay within the lines. Feel free to enlist the help of everyone and anyone.

Step 3:

Constantly do Quality Control Checks. (Stay within the Lines!)

Step 4:

Once the background is done, take a step back and admire your masterpiece.

Step 5:

Take a few more steps back, and let the Riverkids community take over.

Step 6:
Clean Up. Dispose of the used Spray Cans properly!

So here're the 6 simple steps to create your very own mural - Riverkids style!

p.s.: In my excitement, I forget to take a picture of the finished murals. I promise I'll get the picture the next time we head up to Phnom Penh!

Tiny Toones

Tiny Toones is a small breakdancing group in Phnom Penh that works with at-risk kids. I don't entirely get the brekdancing thing, but then again I watched all of Dancing With Stars for Joey Fatone, so I have no cred when it comes to dance! They're exploring traditional dance and Khmer music with breakdancing and they have weekly 'dance-offs' in one of the city parks. We hope they'll be teaching our kids soon too!
