I'm sure designers everywhere have one piece in their portfolio of which they are most proud, due to its quality, high profile, content, impact, client, or simply its personal meaning. This mural is that piece in my portfolio. Modeled after the work of artist Larry Kirkland, this mural of laser-etched Pennsylvania black slate is seven feet high and totals sixty feet in length. The images tell the rich history of the College of Earth and Mineral Sciences, encompassing the College’s breadth of research and study, as well as its commitment to education and betterment of mankind. The mural is a permanent and prominent centerpiece in the Museum of the College of Earth and Mineral Sciences, and a symbol of excellence and dedication.
