Mosiac Unveiling


It felt like an end, but I guess it's a beginning. I can be short-sighted like that. The Community Arts Project Foundation's Mona Lisa Mosaic Masterpiece was unveiled last night at The Eastwood Mall. While I haven't heard conclusively, I've heard it will travel around in the future. Foundation Director, Sue Jacobs is committed to seeking national attention for the piece. The unveiling was well attended, the participating artists, their fans, and foundation types. Those people are as much a mystery to me as I'm sure I am to them. The Mayor stayed for the whole thing. Even though their were plenty of people bending his ear all night, he seemed bored.
It was a fun project. It cut into my summer in a painful way, but I appreciated being invited to participate, and am glad I did.

Jeff, thans for the comments on the mosaic. Now I guess it's on to phase two and that would be getting the nation to come to us. I didn't know the mayor attended the event. Which mayor? Sue Jacobs

I could be mistaken, but I thought it was Jay Williams.

Quite a few people have commented to me, how much they loved your particular painting.

That's Awesome!
A lot of nice folks complemented me on it as well. Thanks again for the opportunity to show off, I don't get tapped for all the Y-town art projects!
