Nashville Walls Project - Lee Estes

Work in progress: Nashville Walls Project - Lee Estes

Nashville Walls Project describes themselves as "bringing some of the worlds top Street and Graffiti Artists to Nashville for mural projects, exhibits and events."

In May 2017, Australian artist Guido Van Helten came to The Nations neighborhood in Nashville to paint this abandoned grain silo. This photo was taken on Memorial Day when the project was almost but not quite finished. If you look closely in the bottom left corner, you can see Guido on a lift.

The subject of the massive 160 foot tall painting is Lee Estes. Learn more about the 91-year old and lifelong resident of The Nations HERE or HERE. The mural wraps around the corner and depicts two children from St Luke’s Community House in the Nations.
