It's FINISHED!!! Thanks to the Arts Council of Livingston Parish for connecting us with artists Marita Gentry and Artwork by Amber Amber Hilbun. This process started in the 4th quarter of 2021 with discussions, ideas, sketches, and lots of creativity from the artists.
The final "design" we agreed upon was beautiful, and now that it is the actual size (AKA HUGE), it's even more impressive, and they nailed it.
They helped us transform a drab wall into a piece of art that enhances the community.
Have you seen it? What do you think? What's your favorite detail?
