Chalk Circle’s Peter Voice was the man behind the masterpiece and said it was a terrific feeling to nearing the completion of the mural.
“It’s a great joy when you finish a public piece of art,” he said.
“It was an eyesore before, the wall was ugly and had a great big hole in it.”
The building has been under restoration works- the bricks were sandblasted to their original state providing the perfect canvas for Mr Voice.
“It was a garage in the past and there is a long term ambition to turn the building into a vintage machinery museum, so I wanted to do something along those lines,” he said.
“We plan to have a couple of vintage vehicles parked out the front and hopefully will become a destination for classic car parades that pass through the area.
“There is a lot of great work being done at this end of Main Street, people are starting to call it the Paris end of Stawell.”
