Dear Selection Committee,
I think the 7031 Art in Action project is a terrific idea and I would
love to be a part of it. I have had some wonderful experiences
decorating the alleyways of Fort Collins through the Transformer
Mural Projects, painting on location and engaging passer bys.
I have lots of ideas on how I might contribute to the 7031 project
and I am open to all possibilities. The best might be for me to take
my graffiti mitigation mural techniques to any surface in Old Town
that needs it. That would address several needs in one swoop.
I have been selected as the Artist of Larimer County for 2009 and
have promised to paint the ®pen Lands of Larimer County.
Perhaps this imagery would translate well into mural subject
matter.
Sincerely Yours,
Diane Findley
