We started these two 8'x80' canvases in mid April. They now are installed in the Grand Lodge Retirement Complex at 60th and Highway 370 in Omaha. Rebecca Van Ornam and Richard Harrison did most of the painting but we had help from Anne and Liz Newman (a mother, daughter team), Hugo Zamarano, Mike Giron and Gerardo Vazquez. There will soon be 5 glass shadow boxes 3'x4' in size displaying uniforms, metals and photos of some of the residents. The murals were designed through discussions with residents who had served in the military. We were mentioned in local newspapers in relation to this project. I was really happy that all our measurements worked out! The building will be completing construction in a month or two. I hope the residents will enjoy the mural.
