Artists's Comments:

Inspiration:

I had recovered from Guillaime Barre Syndrome and moved back to my hometown at age forty. I had a vision of a healing garden and started collecting photos and imagery that corresponded with my vision. I met the owner of the building at 31 Bridge Street, David Miller, and told him what I wanted to do. We took got approval from the Planning Board to paint the mural because it was designedto camouflage an existing eyesore on the building (a door that had been removed at an earlier date and bricked over.) Dave had a mason create a smooth surface for me over the brick and I painted the mural in the summer of 1998. I feel I have contributed something to the town that is deeply appreciated, expresses my love of nature and will endure.
