SLNC Visitor Center Mural
(30 ft x 51 ft)
September 2006 Bucks County Courier Times announced a public competition to decorate the outside wall of the Silver Lake Nature Center main building at 1306 Bath Road, Bristol, Pennshylvania.
Twelve local artiists participated in the competition. Members of the community were invited to vote for their favorite design. My design was selected.
June 1, 2007 work began and continued until October when weather conditions made painting difficult. Work resumed in 2009 through the summer and fall. I signed the mural on Saturday, September 18, 2009.
The spring of 2010 I extended the mural along the walkway toward the main entrance and around the corner of the building. And I completed the extension September 2011.
Please stop by the Nature Center to see the completed mural and hike the trails and enjoy this Jewel of Bucks County. See you soon. Cheers, Roger

Pat & Jim sponsored an unveiling ceremony on Saturday, November 1, 2008. In attendance were 60 friends and relatives. The unveiling took place around 2:30 PM. It was a wonderful way to put the finishing touches on the most interesting creative experience I have had to date. Thanks to Pat and Jim, life is an aesthetic adventure at Wishing Star Farm.
