Recent MURAL PROJECTS
Florida Volunteers Making A Splash
|
The sunny Floridian Chapter ramped up activity in the month of February! Catherine and Russ Brown initiated a mural project for a special little girl who is currently battling Leukemia.
|
Fellow artists from the Brown's community in Naples have gotten involved to lend their talents to the splash mission to create artwork for this inspiring child's bedroom. Kaylie's story will be featured next month.
|
Catherine's talented art teacher and wonderful friend, Bill Kreutz, has generously donated his amazing painting (pictured) to Splashes of Hope. Splashes of Hope will raffle off this painting to raise funds for a mural at the Tampa VA.
|
Our intention is to use elements of this magnificent painting in our mural, which will be placed in a residents' section of the VA, which houses Korean and Vietnam war veterans. Jimmy Knapp and Russ Brown made a site visit to assess the space. More details to follow!
