✨ Announcement and ask for help! ✨

My books are officially closed until August! Please message me soon to get in for late summer/fall windows. I am continuously humbled by the support of my community. That being said, I need your help!!

I am working with the awesome Rotarians at the Newport/Priest River Rotary Club to create a community mural at the Oldtown Rotary boat launch. We NEED local students who want to add their art to the mural. If you can think of anyone who has artistic talent, please send them our way! The info for how to sign up is in the pinned post at the top of my page.

Did you guys know that until my senior year in highschool I pretty much refused to do any art that wasn't colorless pencil drawings ? I was convinced that color and mediums outside my comfort zone just weren't for me. It took some persistent teachers and trying things I wasn't sure about to ever pick up a paintbrush.

Even if you or someone you know has the talent but doesn't think muralism is for them, I promise we can work together and make something you're proud of!! All paint, brushes, and other material provided.

**This is where I shamelessly beg you to share this post even if it's absolutely no interest to you**😁

📢More 𝗕𝗜𝗚 news from the Newport/Priest River Rotary Club! We are so excited to FINALLY share with our communities about an upcoming art project that will involve our local students and artists.

Introducing the 𝗢𝗹𝗱𝘁𝗼𝘄𝗻 𝗥𝗼𝘁𝗮𝗿𝘆 𝗣𝗮𝗿𝗸 𝗕𝗼𝗮𝘁 𝗟𝗮𝘂𝗻𝗰𝗵 𝗠𝘂𝗿𝗮𝗹 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗷𝗲𝗰𝘁!🎨 This project is multi-phased starting with replacing damaged eco blocks in the retaining wall at the boat launch. Thank you, City of Oldtown!

Phase 1️⃣: Replace eco blocks, install bracket system and primed wood boards. Thank you to Skyler Fredrickson for volunteering to help with the install and to Selkirk Ace Hardware & Albeni Falls Building Supply, Inc. for their donations and discounts!

Phase 2️⃣: The most fabulous Paulina Fredrickson of Painted by Paulina is our skilled, and generous, artist who will be painting the landscape and letters 'Welcome to Oldtown, Idaho'.

Phase 3️⃣: We have invited local high school students from the surrounding schools to submit their art pieces to add to this incredible community artwork. A piece that proves "we are better when we work together". Students will add their pieces in July under the instruction and supervision of Paulina - examples: bear, fish, deer, an eagle, a fisherman, as skier in the mountains, native plants/flowers, etc. It's going to be fantastic!

✅The final stage includes sealing the artwork and sharing the finalized mural with the community and visitors of the Oldtown Rotary Park Boat Launch!

🗣️ Please Share - We are still seeking art pieces from talented artists! See our submission form in the comments and on our webpage - top right under 'Document Vault'. www.newportpriestriverrotary.org
