With most of the Forest For The Trees murals finished, now's the time to do the first part of our recap of this year's event (also see 20132014). The name of the mural festival comes from the phrase "they can’t see the forest for the trees" which signifies the inability to understand the greater picture when you’re too focused solely on what’s in front of you. Organizers Gage Hamilton and Matt Wagner of Hellion Gallery hope that the art will draw Portland's residents away from their daily routine. Enjoy some photos of the completed murals below as well as the piece from Blaine Fontana seen above.
