Julia Purinton & I made this mural for the Langdon St Project June 2016-2017
It's 16' x 24' on plywood panels we varnished to withhold weather. It's held up pretty well!
With the bucket machine Ward Joyce & I used to install the 16 panels.
Since the National Parks have lost their budgets in many of the AZ parks, we have to find new locations to set up and paint some of the classical scenes. Some of the locals came by to see what we were doing. Sadly an airplane crashed in the middle of this particular mountain one told me, and when the light is right, you can see an 'angel of death' where the plane hit. A father with his 2 children and engineer pilot.
