Shara and finished piece, “The Wisdom of Athena,” a 25-square-foot chalk art mural at Northampton Chalk Art Festival 2024, in collaboration with Lore Osgood. When we chose to represent the goddess Athena, we had no idea that we would be making our art at the Northampton Forbes Library, where they have this amazing Athena sculpture by Brian McQuillan. It felt like kismet to be creating our chalk art here!
