The Fitness Company Mural
Posted November 27th, 2007 by psheridan
Painted on three sides of a four story building located on Greencourt, Washington, DC, NW, just south of Thomas Circle.
This project was a crowning jewel in my early commercial art career. I was very lucky to meet and work with Paul London who truly is a man of vision. The project tool roughly five weeks from start to finish and included some interior color and design work to complement the exterior design.
The customer wanted to draw attention to the otherwise drab build stuck in the middle of the block and convey energy and motion, appealing to both men and women.

The mural consisted of faded faces of stars and starlets of the Golden Era of black and white film. I even got written up in the Washington Post for my work on this project.

Oil on plywood.
I met this woman walking passed the Whitehouse everyday on my way to school. She had a pemanent protest on Pennsylvania Avenue reading "Ban All Nuclear Weapons or Have a Nice Doomsday."
On December 8, 1982, protester Norman Mayer was shot and killed by the Park Police after threatening to blow up the Washington Monument. Her protest picked up where Mr. Mayer left off.
