The Incredible Paintings!

My parents commissioned a friend of theirs, artist Glynn Moore, to create two murial paintings for the flat sides of the domed ceiling in their kitchen. My Mom envisioned a 1960s 4th of July — day on one side, night on the other — and with some paintings my Mom selected to indicate style, they traded sketches back for a few months. A few years of back and forth work and talk — and these fantastic pieces arrived today. WOW! They are absolutely breathtaking. I’ve posted several pictures below, although they do nothing to give them justice.

(It reminds us of the gift of our own Picasso, Dave, who we hope to one day to commission to capture our love for New Orleans in a similar treasure.)
