Jaime’s illustration class has been given the great opportunity to create several murals for the Brookdale Hospital in Brooklyn, NY.
Our first steps took place in Parsons where the class created their sketches and later painted them. (Look for the images under the “Brookdale hospital mural project” link).
After visiting the hospital for the first time and returning this past weekend, we had a better sense of how much work was to be placed onto the murals. Most importantly, we realized how much this meant for the patients who watched the whole day as the students sketched their concepts onto the walls.
