White Rock's Whaling Wall has a fresh coat.
The city had the Russell Avenue wall cleaned, and hired South Surrey artist Elizabeth Hollick to touch up the iconic mural, to address water and other damage.
The 60-by-30-foot mural has graced the wall for 30 years, painted by noted nature artist Wyland, who gave the city his blessing to have another artist work on it, provided the original image wasn’t altered in the process.
Hollick expected to finish the task today.
