Ok - here is a sticky situation. About 13-14 years ago I did a mural for a Wal-Mart in Corpus Christi, TX. That is where I am moving back to in a few days. I had forgotten (or blocked out) this thing for years - it is the most awful thing you've ever seen. And I signed my name in huge letters of course. I was pregnant with one of the kids and I remember barely being able to finish it because of having to be on a ladder and getting dizzy. It is a total embaressment - right in their entryway. I just mailed out over 800 post cards advertising for portraits in my old new city - and if anyone sees my name there.... it just wouldnt be good.
My husband went to that store earlier today to pick up an answering machine and just about cringed. I tried to talk him into defacing it - just my name that is - but he said he wasn't going to go to jail for me.
I do not want to paint this over with a free mural for these folks - they hardly paid anything to begin with, but if I had to I would. I
have to get at least my name off there. I'm thinking I will approach the manager and show him how far I've come...and ask permission to just paint over my name with the background color.
So - what chance do you think I have of getting my name off there? Legally, that is.
