Major Projects: Red Cross Blood MuseumThe American Red Cross commissioned Out of Bounds, a marketing group out of Culver City, California, to create a traveling blood museum, with the purpose of raising awareness of the importance of blood donation. Lisa Schultz of Out of Bounds and Art Director Sal Sinare had seen the artwork I'd done for "Faces of a Plague." They wanted to capture the same feeling for the oversize portraits that they visualized for the 48 ft. x 12 ft. exterior of the mobile blood museum. The portraits were to communicate that people of all ages and all colors are in need of blood transfusions. Inside the truck is a multi media exhibit about the people seen in the exterior portraits, and their particular needs for transfusions.The mobile blood museums traveled all over the United States and Puerto Rico.
