In June 2006 Rebecca worked alongside her mentor Ben Long, as a member of his crew on a fresco in E.H. Sloop Chapel at Crossnore School in Crossnore, NC. Long depicted Mark 10:14, “Suffer the little children to come unto me, and forbid them not; for such is the kingdom of God” Rebecca assisted with grinding or spinning out the pigment colors to make paint and mix colors, laying plaster, and pounching. Rebecca also had the opportunity to try the technique of fresco painting using some of her drawings. You can see her work here.
The next fresco project is scheduled for Fall 2007 in Mount Pleasant, SC. For more about Ben Long's work click here.
