When Dave Gordon sets out to do a mural he tries to gather as much information he can about the people that are going to be showcased in it.And that goes doubly so for veterans. The Sebastopol-based muralist – who painted the first undertaking of the Manteca Mural Society on the wall of Century Furniture and has been back to do several others throughout the community – was on hand Thursday morning to discuss the elements that the community wants included with the next veterans’ memorial mural that honors those who answered the call to serve during World War I. By reaching out to the community, Gordon said, he’s able to get the perspective that people want and learn things that help make the finished product that much more personal to those they memorialize. “It’s silly to think that I have all of the answers,” said Gordon – who plans on having the mural completed by May of 2018 in time for the city’s centennial celebration.
