Poster Artist: “Meet Me Downtown Festival”, Boca Raton, FL
“Chickee under the Banyan” was selected as the Meet me Downtown Art Festival 2005 Poster.
That summer Hurricane Katrina and Wilmas winds took down alot of Banyan trees in this area of Boca Raton. So the poster was a reminder and tribute to the trees that once lived in this neighborhood.

Marjory Stoneman Douglas crusaded to save the everglades in the 1930′s. As a tribute to the 125th anniversary of Coconut Grove, the committee wanted the  theme for the festival poster to be her home here in Coconut Grove. The morning I went to see the house, find its  location an elderly lady was walking on the same street. She and I chatted and I learned she was a good friend of Marjorys. She told me Marjory had a favorite cat and gave me a lead as to where I could find this cat. Well I did and included Marjorys cat in the watercolor. 

Second Place: Watercolors, Festival of the Arts, Ft. Lauderdale, FL

Poster Artist:

“Sunfest Weekend” was a commissioned watercolor, asked to be created for the  SunFest Music and Art Festival 1994 official poster. Eileen took a trip to the shows site. After walking and walking she had a flash inspiration and imagined herself  looking off the balcony of one of the high rise apartments over the Intercoastal and seeing the Art Festival below.
