"Loving Embrace"
2020-2021
Bordentown Arts is dedicated to creating, showcasing and celebrating arts and culture in and around Bordentown City, NJ.
The Children's Mural was a dedication to the children of our community and a way to commemorate the difficult year of 2020. The Premise was to bring the children of our community together by crating a community mural where each child received a portion the mural and supplies and painted in the bank spaces. The Four murals were crated and designed by four local artists within the surrounding communities based off of the themes peace, love, hope and community.
"Loving Embrace" was my submission to the mural in which I wanted to emulate Love by choosing motifs of love. To learn more and read about the Children's Mural click HERE and please follow Bordentown Arts
