Wyland's Sealife / Dolphin Mural in Ft. Lauderdale Moving Along

Hi All,

I stopped by yesterday, Thursday June 12, to see where Wyland was on his Sea Life Mural in North Lauderdale. He got a lot done but there still a lot of open spaces on the wall, so we will see if he will be done by Saturday June 14. But here are some photos of what I saw so far.


He seems to be painting a theme of the Florida Waterway Eco Systems, from the Mangrove area of Florida, to the intra coastal waterways, to the Oceans and the reefs. Because he has started the western portion of the wall with Mangroves and Manatees, then Dolphins Swimming along in brackish waterway which is the intra coastal, and then sea turtles and the coral reefs. Also, I think Wyland had some contribution from other artists to help paint the mural too.

It was exciting to see the work in progress. I hope he is able to finish the Sea Life Mural by Saturday, but we will see. Let's pray the weather is with him, so far it has been pretty good.


God Bless,

John
