Attendees at the NWC Fine Art
& Artisan Fair are invited to
show their talent in an inter-
active community mural
project.
This painting will be broken down into 216 8"x 8" sections for visitors to paint from a sample.
Each completed section will be
stapled to the wooden frame
and eventually the entire
painting comes to life.
This year's selected mural painting "Hope Replaced Fear" was created by artist Lindsay Jones
Lindsay Jones is a Springfield, Illinois based artist. Her artistic journey began when she was introduced to watercolor through a course nine years ago. Painting became a refuge and a way to ease anxiety. In 2016, she started her own watercolor business named “Drenched in Peace”. Her painting "Hope Replaced Fear" was also selected as the community mural displayed at the Illinois State Museum. Her vision is to incorporate her art into pillows, wallpaper and other home decor. "I want to show my four kids not to give up on a dream and vision--that life is all about living and investing in people."
Plus there will be
photo opportunities to become part of a painting masterpiece.
