Joe Mavrinac Arena: Pencil, enamel, vinyl on Crezon (plywood), started feb.02, completed
nov.03 (21 months). Forty hockey players, either born or lived
in Kirkland, made it to the NHL(so far). Steve Cox produced this
project, gathered the photos, led the sponsorship drive, even
helped move plywood around. All I had to do was paint, paint, paint.
Larger than life, these 4' x 8' portraits took about 2 weeks each.
A lot of these guys have passed on, but some of the ones still
around are getting word, and coming back to KL to sign their names.
