December progress report…. winding up!
August 31st, 2011
Andre celebrates the end of 2008, with eight months of work on the mural…. This is the final video in the Andre Blanchet series. Hope you enjoyed watching one of our landmark art pieces being created, a little at a time. Andre finished in the spring of 2009, and was always very proud of the “pinacle” of this great body of work. He exhibited for many years at the La Quinta Arts Festival, winning many awards across the U.S. His many collectors across the world enjoy his historical and landscape waterolors in their own homes. Andre died in April of 2010.
