Thanks to Jamie's Dream Team, Artists Amanda Lee and Kelly Wood, and the Pittsburgh Art Blog (Rick Byerly), the mural art for Zach Mulvey's bedroom have been completed and look great. Zach, age 9, has already had 2 heart transplants and is fighting heart rejection currently. His facebook prayer page can be found here.
The artists spent around a week working on the murals and Zach and family are grateful for what the artists created. The Pittsburgh Art Blog appreciates all the replies from artists as well and to Amanda Lee for making the effort to bring this gift full circle.

The Pittsburgh Art Blog features selected pittsburgh artists and upcoming exhibits with photos from the artists and galleries. since the major press outlets do not go beyond a directory listing of exhibits, blogs are needed to promote pittsburgh artists and their work. the blog also calls attention to the inferiority complex of pittsburgh art and how it's perpetuated by the major players in town. Started on August 20, 2007.pittsburgh area galleries and art venues are listed at the sister site www.PghGalleries.com.
the blog and website are volunteer projects from fine art photographer and pittsburgh artist advocate rick byerly, www.RickByerly.com.
