Mural Application

2) What is the purpose, meaning and/or significance of the proposed mural and why is it important to share with the community? The artist's concept is based upon the desire to honor the history of the location as a possible setting for what was known as Fort Visalia. The artist has included an abstract depiction of the Fort at the lower portion of the composition. The sun at the top has rays that mimic patterning from examples of local Native American basketry. The purple mountains emphasize the size and significance of our Sierra Nevada, while the abstract foothills and lake represent the area surrounding Lake Kaweah and its divergence in to four creeks.
The side borders are comprised of oak leaves, showing the importance of our local trees.
The mural is a colorful abstraction of many of the elements that have allowed for our community to develop and grow. 3) What is the timetable to commence and complete the subject mural? Production of the mural is scheduled to begin in August/September of 2023 depending on the construction process and inclement weather. The artist has proposed a 3 week production period 4) Please give a brief biography of the individual(s), group(s) or organization(s) that will install the mural along with the artistic credentials of the artist who prepared the mural design:

Michael Vazquez provided the winning submission and further made edits to his original design, proving his experience in dealing with clients and his willingness to get the project done right. 5) Please explain who will be responsible for the murals maintenance:
