I can't remember the name of the new development across from the airport, but when I left in May, they were just finishing some wonderful murals on its wall. Does anybody know who the folks were who were doing the painting? Some looked like students, maybe, others adults.

On one of my jaunts around the island I saw those too, CB, but didn't have a chance to get photos. The people seemed to be having a good time, and were doing a great job!

I believe the development you're referring to is Waterlands Village. I think the various artists did in fact sign their work.

Did Henk Roozendaal do any of the murals? I love his work and have his first Portraits of Bonaire book.

Cynde is nice enough to say she'll help me post the pics I have, and as soon as I get back from a little concert I'm dashing off to, I'll send them to her again. Cynde, I guess I'll have to send them in separate attachments, since the file wouldn't open.

The Bonaire Reporter sometime back had pics of them, but can't remember the issue they were in, very nice and colorful! Can't look for them right now, as I am on pool duty for my son and friend, you know how young teen-age boys can be in a pool!

They were painted by local SGB (high school) students as far as I know. Very nice creative efforts. Each is distinctive, colorful, and well executed.

It is indeed on the walls of Waterlands Village.

Thanks for the info and pics, guys. Funny, the ones the high school kids did are by far my favorites. The pictures don't really do the colors justice....I hope they keep them up, cause they're really nice and bright!
