The Doors at Fairfield Hills
The doors at Fairfield Hills was the brain child of Paula Brinkman. I was lucky to be one of the four artists asked to contribute two panels to be installed on one historical building on the campus. This not only beautified the area, but provided safety as the original doors were either non-existent or rotting. Since the installation, these doors have become a wonderful photo op for all the young families, dog walkers, and art fans who walk Fairfield Hills Campus. The designs were up to each artist. House paint and baltic birch were supplied, and many coats of polyurethane! With each passing year, these doors are holding up incredibly well! I hope you enjoy, and if ever in Newtown, Connecticut, please stop by and see all four buildings and doors for yourself!

I was honoured to win the poster design contest for 2023. Unfortunately the Arts Festival was cancelled due to bad weather. As there was no rain date in place, my t-shirts and posters were never made available during that year. Here is the design!
This was my original submission. It was edited by the Newtown Arts Council for their products.
