Lincoln Exhibit Mural

We now have an artist that is painting murals in the Lincoln Exhibit.

Ms. Judy Powers is from Mt. Vernon and she's a wonderful artist. I was privileged enough to see some of her previous works of art. She painted a lovely mural at the Western Ribeye in Evansville, Indiana. You may check out some of the murals she's painted on her website.

We've asked Judy to paint a battlefield scene, as well as a scene that will be located in the portion of the exhibit that contains President Lincoln's office. It is a view from the window over his desk of the Lincoln monument being constructed.

Below is a snapshot of what Judy has painted so far on the battlefield scene.

So Judy doesn't have to drive back and forth all the way to Mt. Vernon she's been bunking with Melissa at our visitors bureau. I think she's been cooking dinner too! What a sweet deal!

I'll keep you updated with new photos of the murals as it progresses come along!
