Visitors to Miami Beach will receive a warm and bright welcome thanks to a new mural by David “Lebo” Le Batard.nThe “Welcome to Miami Beach” mural was completed in early October 2016, the result of months of hard work and planning.n“I had to go before City Council and present my design to them, and it was a nice, democratic process,” Lebo says.nThe brightly-colored mural depicts one of Miami Beach’s iconic Art Deco lifeguard towers, a monk parakeet and a jasmine flower. Of course, the scene wouldn’t be complete without a bright sun and a beach serving as the background. The mural may not resemble the typical style seen in Lebo’s Postmodern Cartoon Expressionism art, but he says he purposefully designed the mural with a pop art feel. He did so to accomplish his goal of creating a “modern-day postcard” people could share.nnLebo’s mural is the largest approved for the Miami Beach district, measuring in at 50 feet high and 120 feet long. The artwork takes up the wall of the abandoned Roosevelt Theater, which sits on the Biscayne Channel.n“It’s over water, so there were a lot of logistical and physical challenges,” he says. “You had to climb down a sea wall, get on a paddle board, paddle to the wall, put on your safety gear and connect to the building.”nBy welcoming visitors, locals, art lovers and others from around the world to Miami Beach, Lebo hopes the mural can serve as a landmark for the areannud83dude4fud83cudffbPlease like ud83dudc4dud83cudffbthis description below⤵ufe0f
