Eastport Maritime Mural

Painting large formatted pictures (murals)  would be a challenge to anyone so when an opportunity arose to paint a large scale mural on the outside of Hopkins Furniture warehouse in Eastport Cindy's reply was an enthusiastic YES! Donations for the mural came from private individuals, MRE (Maritime Republic of Eastport), the Eastport Civic Association and the Eastport Business Association. It took Cindy 2 months to paint the mural that depicts over 200 years of the maritime history of Eastport.

Cindy's original conception of the mural started out while she was at Cafe Guru's, a local Eastport coffee shop, as she sketched her rendition of maritime boats on pieces of paper. The pencil sketch is of a boat depicted on the mural
