What a weekend!! I hope everyone had an amazing Thanksgiving/break from work. I don't know about you but I'm getting reared up to work on this mural. We're still in the process of deliberation. (A lot of our energy is being directed towards fighting off this Stupak amendment and trying to keep a likewise occurrence from happening in the Senate.)
Anyways, I promise promise PROMISE that we'll get to this soon. Next week hopefully...In the meantime, enjoy some of these other wonderful murals and envision how awesome ours will look!!
*This last one is super large...ours will not take up the entire side of a building BUT it will still rock!!

Last Two!
Hey all! These are the last two submissions. It's taken me longer than I thought to get to this because we at Planned Parenthood are really busy trying to turn this whole Stupak mess around. If you're interested you can find out more info here.
Anyhow, this first one is by Laura Smales.
And the final submission is by Sally Louise Polk (she added a note to imagine the background as hot pink.)
Super!! Hopefully we'll get to decide the winner next week.

OK, these next four are by Cynthia Bellarose:
This next one is by Eddie Sergi.
And the last- but not least- image we have for now is by Meredith Lum with the text by Meredith and Sarah Lum.
Wow. These are great! I'll get the last two posted ASAP and then we'll decide on the winner sometime this week.

One week!!!
We've got submissions in and we'll be posting them (with the artist's permission, of course) after the deadline.
And...there's one week left to submit. I want my inbox so flooded with submissions that gmail tells me I need more space. And...you not being an "artist" just won't fly here : ) In fact, I just talked to a woman today who doesn't consider herself an artist but took some painting classes in the past and was going to see what she remembered so she could submit something. NOW that is pretty frickin' awesome.
Oh, and an update: we're thinking of putting the mural on a large board and attaching it to a wall (like this mural in the Short North.) That way we can work on it indoors when it gets cold out AND the owner of the wall has a chance to see the finished product before they decide on whether or not to hang it up. But, I'm sure it'll look so sweet that they won't refuse.
Can you tell I'm psyched?? Now, get creative!!
