The Art of Street Painting
I have a wonderful team of highly skilled young artists that just recently created a 12ft. X 12ft. chalk, street painting at the Market Place in Bakersfield, CA. It was a part of a weekend for the arts, entitled ³Via Arte¹
Art patrons, corporations and independent businesses sponsored artists to paint their spaces with the money going to the Bakersfield Museum Of Art. Our space was sponsored by longtime art enthusiasts and supporters, Mary Lou and Jack Thomson. We recreated a Mediterranean street scene originally painted by Pablo Picasso.
This team plans to take part in future street painting events throughout California. Please contact me if you are interested in sponsoring us.
The artists included-
Ricardo Gonzalez
Nyoka Jameson
Elizabeth Sherwyn
Amy Hillbloom
Katie Cole
Cheryl Sherwyn
Kris Tiner
Eloy Covarrubias
Ignacio Viveros
Araceli Rios
