LAUEMF FEATURING A LIVE PAINTING SHOW BY SANTIAGO HEREDIA
During a period of approximately 4 to 5 hours, Santiago will
be attempting to create a very challenging piece consisting
of 16 wooden panels, (12inches x 12 inches each) using acrylic.
As each one of the panels are finished, he will be placing them
on the wall side by side. When all the 16 panels are finished,
the fun begins! Santiago will be changing the location of each
panel every 15 minutes for an additional hour or two. The pattern
design used in the piece allows each of the 4 sides of the squares
to match between the 16 panels, making this a never-ending-changing
painting.
This art piece will be sold during the event as a whole or by
panels. The price will be $100 per panel. 60% of the painting’s
proceeds during the event will benefit +arte –minas.
