Passmore wanted it to incorporate the lake, since it s one of Sheboygan s major attractions. Out of town guests visiting the bar will often remark, It s like Sheboygan has its own ocean.
Passmore finds the lake relaxing and likes to view it by car, motorcycle or bicycle. And Haneman, he said, is a water buff, so a mural of the lake made sense to represent them and Sheboygan.
The mural will cover most of the 100-foot-by-50-foot wall and use bright colors against black outlining. It will look like it s made of stained glass and feature Sheboygan s iconic, red lighthouse that sits on North Pier. When it s complete, people will be able to stand next to the mural and look like they are standing on the pier.
