It was so cool to make this mural in my community. In many ways this was a dream come true for me. It gave me an opportunity to emulate the illustrative style of one of my favorite artists, N.C. Wyeth. And it’s a wall in my neighborhood that I’ve been looking to paint for years. I am very grateful to the Sayler Park Village Council and Butch Davis of the Wooden Boat Shop for making this mural a possibility! Thank you to the community and to the Sayler Park Historical society for your financial support of the scaffolding. And I’m thankful for all of the logistical help from my husband and the guys at the boat shop and at Parnell’s. All of you have helped me make this mural a reality, and for that I am very grateful!
