Event
"THINKING OUT LOUD"
"Meet and Greet The Artist" Los Angeles California Art Show & Fund Raiser
A two day event July 29th and 30th, 2017, from 2:00-6:00 pm
Known as Mr. Wash the Artist, Fulton Leroy Washington is a former prisoner who served 21 years in a wrongfully convicted federal life without parole sentence. By the grace of God, the prolific artist found a way to turn his unjust time into an unprecedented talent, filling his life with life stories through the power of a paint brush. With intentional strokes of creative genius, he visually painted the story of his innocence and freedom, until it manifested into his reality. In 2016, Mr. Wash's sentence was commuted by President, Barack Obama, and he was granted freedom to come home. Since, Mr. Wash has traveled telling his story and sharing his gift of art with the world.
We welcome you to attend the event to experience the profound body of work and the spirit of The Artist.
