Nota Bene: Marlin Mural Team

"John Rudel, the Batten Associate Professor of Art and Curator of Exhibitions at Virginia Wesleyan College, is one of the most prolific public artists in Norfolk, likely second only to the muralist John P. Hickey." This statement is the lead of an article "SKY BLUE SKY: JOHN RUDEL & HIS VWC STUDENTS CREATE FOR THE NEON FESTIVAL" in a recent AltDaily.com article which can be found here:

 

I encourage you to read this inspiring interview with John. The work of the Marlin Mural Team has also been featured in Distinction Magazine and The Virginian-Pilot.


Kudos to John and his Marlin Mural Team of students: Jazmyne Brooks, Lydia Johnson, Adam Kurek, Kathryn Kurzenknabe, Mary McLaughlin, Samantha Nason, Bailey Rammling, Madison Soto, Tonesha Taylor, Kayla Wright, and Ja'Lisa Yates. Their fine work brings honor and distinction to Virginia Wesleyan.

 

I hope everyone has a wonderful fall break!
