VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. — The City of Virginia Beach and the Virginia Aquarium commissioned artist Sarah Gallahan to paint a mural on the front of their North Building and it was completed on Monday.
The mural is about 66 feet wide and 38 feet high, illustrating three underwater sea turtles swimming. It took Gallahan nearly two weeks to complete the piece.
