Famed Montreal street artist creates works of art using only a pressure washer
MONTREAL, May 9 /CNW/ - After months of heavy snowfall, salt build-up and winter grime, Canadian Tire invites Montrealers to an outdoor spring cleaning spectacle happening on St-Laurent Boulevard. To inspire and motivate Montrealers to get started on their own spring clean-ups, local graffiti artist, Howie Dewitt, will demonstrate how to tackle the toughest winter grime as he creates a visual masterpiece using nothing but the latest Karcher pressure washer. Witness art being created from just dirt and water on enormous eight-by-12 foot structures built out of house siding and wood fencing.
Local consumers are invited to join in the excitement too. Montrealers will have a chance to test out the hottest outdoor cleaning tool this season and try their hand at pressure washer art to help create a giant collective piece that will be unveiled between 12:30 p.m. and 1:00 p.m.
