Canada's largest photo real mural is visible a mile away. Painted by award winning muralist, Charles Johnston, it is a reproduction of a Robert Bateman painting called "Wolf Sketch" which he completed in 1990. It is the only Bateman mural in existence. Robert Bateman is Canada's most renowned and internationally acclaimed wildlife painter.
The mural is located on Highland Tower, a 10 storey apartment block and the most prominent building on Thompson's skyline. The mural is 86 ft high by 64 wide. It is considered a stunning and world class mural. It was the first Point of Interest completed in September 2005 and set the standard for other development. It will also be the basis for a complete wolf branding theme in Thompson
