I had the opportunity to work with the Philadelphia Mural Arts Program in completing this mural for the 52nd Street Free Library of Philadelphia. The mural was designed by Walé Oyéjidé using many images from classical art history. The theme of the mural is a celebration of beauty in diverse people.
A celebration of the mural will be held at the library on October 20th, from 2 - 4 pm.
Student interns also collaborated on this mural with the intricate patterned borders and Kien Nguyen painted the section inside of the green bordered panel as well as the painting to the left of the library's entrance.
Here are a few images of the people and scenery that I painted for this mural.
