The painting of Downtown Wellen's large-scale murals are starting to get underway by Port Charlotte artist Laura Pommier and Miami muralist Ivan Roque. The two were selected (from 23 submissions) to capture the vibrant spirit of Wellen Park and the high-energy atmosphere of its fast-growing central hub.
“We were deeply impressed by these artists, their signature styles, their use of bright joyful colors, and their ability to express an authentic sense of place,” said Christine Masney, vice president of marketing for Wellen Park.
The artists are expected to complete the murals and talk to spectators during Downtown Wellen’s grand opening celebration in April, so stay tuned at wellenpark.com.
