Bailon has been traveling with one of the invited festival artist Paola Delfin and was assisting her in Ostend for the initial stages of the ginormous wall she was painting for the festival.A small wall became available while he was in Ostend and he took the opportunity to leave his mark on the city spending two days working just outside the city center.With so much going on in the city it was late on the first day before we caught up with Bailon, only managing a few quick photos before the light and temperature dropped. Returning a little earlier on the second day we arrived just in time to catch him adding his signature to the finished mural.With some drone footage captured and us with our photos taken, the property owners invited us all into their space for some food and shots of vodka to warm up and celebrate the completion of the wall. Unable to find their bottle of vodka we instead celebrated with some large shots of Poppies Gin!We were then tasked with assisting the owner name one of the new chicken's they kept in their yard. The owners run yoga classes in their space and had asked their students to suggest names for their chickens.Fellow blogger and photographer Julie from Instagrafite was asked to select one from the large bowl of the suggested names. Drawing one piece of paper from the bowl she called out the name 'J'Adore' much to the owner's delight, ' perfect she said, J'Adore will join her sisters, Coco Channel, and Gucci. We said our goodbyes and thanked them for their hospitality, time and the wall for Mateus.Bailon adding his signature to the completed mural in Ostend, Belgium.Mateus Bailon's completed mural in Ostend located on Verlaatstraat in Ostend, Belgium.Hookedblog on Instagram — @hookedblog Mateus Bailon on Instagram — @mateusbailon Find Hookedblog on — Facebook
