This is the first of a 4 mural project series. These guardian beasts will be painted as landmarks around Edmonton’s Chinatown. This is a message that Chinatown will remain protected from the colonizers. The combination of 4 murals in different parts of Chinatown will be an allegory of its unity that guarantees its existence and longevity.
In our mythology, the night sky is divided into 4 quadrants of constellations. These are represented by the White Tiger (West, Metal, Autumn, Courage), Azure Dragon (East, Wood, Spring, Fortune), Black Tortoise (North, Water, Winter, Longevity), Vermillion Phoenix (South, Fire, Summer, Wisdom). They protect important or sacred grounds, such palaces and tombs. In this project’s case, it will be guarding Chinatown.
This mural faces the west direction, having this guardian white tiger watch over west of Chinatown. The other 3 will be painted accordingly to the direction, which the respective wall faces.
Communities in each province and territory across Canada will create sections of the overall mural that will connect Canada through art. Every participating city or town will create a section of the mural made up of 400-750 individual tiles that symbolizes their community.
Each of these Community Mural sections will stand alone as a mural for that particular community. Then, each of these sections of the mural will be become one of the many storybook pages within the overall mural to form the ultimate visual time capsule and create a legacy for a proud nation.
As each painting is part of a community mural, each community mural is part of the Canada Mosaic Mural. Each community mural virtually connects to other community murals resulting in a massive coast to coast uniflied mosaic.
Throughout the Country, this equates to 100,000’s tiles that will comprise an overall image of train cars connecting Canadians from far and wide!
The graphic imagery reflects Peterson’s ongoing themes of human brutality and violence, power and submission, here depicting gigantic figures mounted and on foot, seen close up in a bloody sword battle.
“Had a lot of fun creating this wildlife battle scene set against a southern Alberta backdrop, that depicts my affinity for owls, nightscapes, and animal anatomy.”

11 days and 150+ hours to paint this 2 story, 100+ foot wall. The mural is titled “The Rhythm of The Night” and is an abstract mural inspired by Whyte Avenue’s nightlife and music scene. The shapes and colours are playful and represent the stage, the spotlight, the smoke and the movement you feel when taken by the rhythm.
