“Gratitude” by Jason Diaz
Residents Forward is proud to present “Gratitude,” a unique original oil painting by beloved PW mural painter Jason Diaz. This special piece was painted en plein air during the Port Washington inaugural Art Walk — a vibrant celebration of creativity and community.
“It was very gratifying for me to be invited to the “Art Walk” and be able to participate in the artistic activities that day, because it’s a way to remember and showcase the artistic work that all we have done at the town, meeting the people, sharing thoughts and keep learning. That’s why I made the painting “Gratitude”, inspired in Port Washington and its unique landscapes transmitting calm and giving the desire to continue pursuing dreams”
