SNORKELING  TRAIL MURAL  PUBLIC  ART

Awarded by the Riviera Beach CRA | Mural location: 2601 Broadway Avenue | Riviera Beach | Florida | 2018

The underwater Snorkeling Trail Mural is a dedication to the renowned Phil Foster Park Snorkeling Trail, a popular international

destination known for its exceptional and diverse marine life. My objective was to encapsulate the breathtaking beauty and the abundant richness of the underwater world as discovered along the snorkeling trail in Riviera Beach and Singer Island.

Beyond creating a mural that stands as a work of art, I was equally driven by the aspiration for it to serve as an educational instrument. 

to raise awareness about the importance of preserving marine ecosystems.

“The Riviera Beach Community Redevelopment Agency would like to thank Murals by Georgeta for being a vital part of our Riviera Beach Art and Branding Project. Georgeta had the daunting task of installing a great piece of artwork at the main intersection of our City. The design and the final product was truly something special. Her positive work ethic and consummate professionalism were also to be admired. We look forward to working with her in the near future.” – Riviera Beach CRA Leadership

 

“We hired Georgeta for a custom paint project on the keel bulb of a racing sailboat belonging to a client. She was very professional and worked with us to get the design exactly as we wanted it. She was also super flexible about using the marine paint that was required for the job. Once the work started, she was incredibly efficient and actually finished ahead of schedule. The result was excellent and was identical to the presented design. We would absolutely work with Georgeta again and highly recommend her for custom paintwork.”  Brad Magovsky, AREA 51 Global Logistics

 

I have worked with Georgeta for three Public Art mural projects… I have had the privilege to witness her work ethic and ability to communicate and work with staff and stakeholders to achieve a consensus regarding the final mural. She is a tireless worker who constantly reworks her designs to accommodate all the opinions offered.  I highly recommend Georgeta Fondos as an extremely creative artist, muralist, professional artist, and creative mind to execute a mural for you.”  Beth Ravitz, Public  Artist and Artist Consultant, Lauderhill, Florida

 

“Georgeta is absolutely AMAZING. She is able to take a verbal concept and transform it into an incredible tangible creation. We have had her paint several murals in our office and each one is phenomenal!! …Georgeta was AMAZING to work with. Her creativity knows no boundaries and her creations bring joy to all who view them. Teresa Miller, Vice President, Human Resources, Garden of Life, Palm Beach Gardens, Florida

 

Georgeta is very professional and reliable and spends a lot of time in doing research for the project. She provides very detailed designs. As a result, her murals are very complex and engaging.”  George Gadson, Public Artist and Artist Consultant, Tamarac, Florida

 

“Superb work! She took a photograph of a Costa Rica Rainforest and made it come alive on my outside wall, using a scaffold to reach high and difficult spots. The attention to detail and realism were stunning. We are very satisfied with the result and professionalism of the job.” C. Cary, Parkland, Florida.

He was the owner of one of the area’s first tourist courts. The park was opened and dedicated in his memory in January 1953.

The Phil Foster Artificial Reef and Snorkeling Trail are composed of nearly two acres and 600 tons of limestone boulders.

The Blue Heron Bridge area is internationally recognized by scientists, scuba divers, underwater photographers, and snorkelers

for its abundance of unique marine life – over 282 species recorded in the REEF database.
