Beautification Projects

Blue Pearl Mermaid Sculptures

I’m not sure where to begin with this project, but what I can say is this brought me to the next level artistically. The project began as a dream of restaurant owner, Peter Botros and I made them a reality. Graphic artist, Brendan Coyle designed them using a 3-D program. The digital design was sent to Makerspace here in Staten Island and the layers of foam from Home depot were cut with a CNC router in slabs. The I, over the next month, possibly 300 plus hours, built them, sculpted them, plastered them , sanded them and painted them. A very good friend of mine, Alan Bruckner helped me create the mount that would then hold them up on the wall at the restaurant. If you would like to see them in person the restaurant is located 37 Navy Pier Ct, Staten Island, NY 10304
