I have learned the joy and hard work involved to produce a bronze sculpture. The hours, weeks and many people it takes to create a piece of art, has given me the love of this medium. Thank you Helen Wilson for the amazing instruction, Ron Young for developing our department and Palomar Community College for making this possible. Spuring= Various sizes of wax sticks (red) used as channels for the bronze to pour through.

From the first days of planning, the local community has played a prominent role in the creation, design and workforce for the new Southeastern Live Well Center. The planning also included extensive outreach to get community feedback and preferences for the artwork to be featured inside and outside of the building. More than 100 local artists submitted applications to the Southeastern Live Well Center’s Public Art Advisory Committee in April 2022 and fourteen finalists were selected. Manuelita Brown, along with contributing artist, Judy Salinsky, were among the lucky fourteen.
