Tuesday: Site Work

Back to Tewa Women United and San Ildefonso...

At TWU: Helen is collaborating with Tony, who taught art at Columbia for years, and Carol, who was a professional textile designer, on the painting of a mural on the back wall facing the reception area.

Helen says; "The project has bits of all three of us, with Tony leading us in use of bright blocks of color to create the feel of the western landscape. The idea is to leave something that would be seen immediately on entering the Tewa building, and a canvas upon which children can paint dessert animals and plants, or can continue the mural down the wall with the colors, which we left behind."

Here's the start of the mural in progress:



Also at TWU: Sorrel Ann is helping update the TWU website and talking to the technology people on the phone.
