A wall in Karori is getting a new lease on life with a mural by a local artist.
Graphic designer and Korean New Zealander Keehwa Hong answered an open call for artists by the Wellington City Council last year.
It is being painted across three sides of an old electricity substation (east, south and west facades) at the entrance to Karori Pool on Donald St.
Hong wants her mural to reflect the pool, the neighbouring school, and the opportunities for recreation in nature that Karori offered.

"WHAT'S SPECIAL ABOUT ME
My ideal home would have a big garden for me to explore and potter around while supervised. I would suit a family that has had dogs before as I am a big boy with a bit of strength. I would love to go for walks with my new family and check out this wonderful country we live in. When I have nothing to do I have shown the ability to escape out of medium to high fencing so I need a plan to be contained during the day that doesn't involve being tied or tethered. Going to work with my new human companion would be great for me. I am not suited to a home with/next to cats and other small animals or livestock. If you are looking for a bigger dog that is pretty laid back then make an appointment to come and meet me."
