Portraits of Hope, “Ice at Santa Monica” – Los Angeles Outdoor Ice Skating Facility
Photo: Wire Image
Portraits of Hope teamed with Proctor & Gamble - Herbal Essences and worked closely with Santa Monica’s Bayside Business District to transform Santa Monica’s seasonal and traditionally monochromatic recreational ice facility into a lush, festive, brightly colored, and fully operational one-of-a-kind ice skating facility and public artwork. This Portraits of Hope public art and civic project involved hundreds of youth participants in schools, hospitals, and social service programs, college volunteers, and community groups. As part of the civic leadership and creative therapy sessions and activities, participants painted spheres, discs, and panels which could be seen from outside, inside, and above the rink facility. Artwork elements and installations included: the ice, protective skate walls, adjoining building walls, giant spheres, hanging discs, full inside and street facing perimeter enclosure, tents, and ice clearing vehicle. www.portraitsofhope.org

©2013 Julia Forsyth, Calabash Whale, acrylic and soap on roofing felt, 19" x 36"
Finally finished! I thought I was finished with Moby Dick about a month ago, but I kept on getting the urge to paint more on it. Glad I did - now it really feels complete.
This piece was inspired by James Rumford's book, Calabash Cat and His Amazing Journey. I drew the patterns onto the roofing felt with soap, then painted the whale, then washed the soap off. Washing the soap off revealed the black roofing felt lines - voila!

This beautiful view of Lido Beach, Florida, was taken from a restaurant high above the beach. You can see a summer storm approaching off-shore, but it didn't deter any beach-goers. The photo was digitally painted to achieve a watercolor look. Upon emailed request, I can upload a digitally framed version so that a stretched canvas print appears as if it is framed and matted (see examples of this technique with some of my other work here).
