Once again I have been contacted to coordinate a paint tiles event and to be on the committee for the Wall of Hope at the Lynn Cancer Institute in Boca Raton. The Lynn Cancer Institute is number 18 in the state of Florida in cancer treatment and research. Lynn Cancer Institute has a huge program each year for cancer patients, survivors and anyone who is willing to help in the fight against cancer. On June 4, 2017, there will be an early morning five K run and then several hundred patients, volunteers, and family members paint tiles. The tiles are then installed and displayed on the walls of the Lynn Cancer Institute. The Boca Museum the Art School has played an important part in this program since 2012. .Mary Belle Cordell is happy to be woking with Vivian Zadkovich and the team at the Lynn Cancer institute in Boca Raton Florida.
Last Year’s Tile Project
Encaustic art is an unusual and different way to create amazing original works of art. Students of all abilities and talents will soon be able to attend classes taught by Mary Belle Cordell in this age-old art form. I have found that painting with wax or painting on porcelain are two almost lost arts. Each of these age-old art forms take time and patience but the end result is usually something that no one else can produce.
