Ryan Tova Katz painted a mural in Evanston to honor Northwestern's Class of 2020 grads.
Artist Ryan Tova Katz painted a mural at 829 Foster St. in Evanston in honor of the 2020 Northwestern graduates. The project took three days and spans the entire side of a building.
Scroll through the slideshow below to see some behind-the-scenes photos of the mural in the making — and the final product.
Katz began the mural at the very top of the building, painting her way down.
Katz worked high above the street — and the Chicago Transit Authority L tracks — for many hours each day.
Katz’s neighbor, who is also the inspiration for the girl in the window, helped with the project.
The four-story mural features a girl dropping 15 purple hearts out of her top-story window.
