Aboriginal artist helps local business through mural
Earl McKay always felt he needed to escape and has used painting as a way to do that.
“I’ve been painting all my life,” said McKay.
As a youngster, McKay was raised in foster homes and never got to feel the stability and love of one family for much longer than a season lasted.
Years later McKay is still using painting as an outlet, and doing it in front of a crowd, “It doesn’t bother me,” he said. “To paint in front of crowds. I just shut everything out and from there I can just be in my own little world.”
