But as I developed this idea further, I realized I could use this theme as a metaphor in many other ways to tell stories. Therefore, a new name came up - \"Spider-Man\", which is an homage and a nod to one of my good friends who is the model in this image and also the biggest fan of Spider-Man I know. His hard work and persistence helped him break into the animation industry which is a really competitive field. Thanks to the years of hard work he now creates animation for movies - the highest level of quality an animator could reach for. In a way it turned out to be a happy accident that the model for this mural happened to be someone who in mind, could really relate to this message. - Ilya Viryachev","author_name":"Sonya Taylor","author_url":"https://streetartcities.com/users/b732cead-1658-40b6-8bdd-b3f50c0200a2","thumbnail_url":"https://streetartcities.com/media/6/6b7604a5-9c7e-4b5d-be14-e7630cf55d59/1024.jpg","thumbnail_width":1024,"width":480,"height":480,"html":"","cache_age":3600}
