As Ruby Princess approached Venice on August 19th, passengers aboard the Princess Cruises ship were treated to a special live art event as Wyland painted an unusual canvas – the bottom of the ship’s Neptune Pool. Wyland was aboard the ship for special art events and meet and greets with passengers. However, painting the ship’s pool was not on his original agenda. Ruby Princess Captain Tony Draper suggested the idea to the artist after being inspired by watching ship crew members painting the Princess “seawitch” logo on the bottom of the ship’s other main pool. A first for the cruise line, Wyland agreed to paint the mother dolphin and her baby as a way to increase awareness of his conservation message. Passengers were invited to follow along with a live top-deck event hosted by the ship’s cruise director, including live video of the painting in progress broadcast on the ship’s Movies Under the Stars screen. “This is certainly one of the most unusual ways we’ve ever painted a pool,” said Jan Swartz, Princess executive vice president. “But it’s a wonderful way to work with Wyland to address our shared concern with the importance of marine conservation, and to give our passengers a unique experience as they witnessed a one-of-a-kind artwork taking shape.” Passengers were able to enjoy watching the artist at work just prior to the ship’s arrival into the Venice canal system.

The South Florida Living Green Fair/Wyland Mayors Challenge encourages healthy competition between South Florida cities to register the most people for an online water conservation pledge. The Challenge was developed by marine artist and conservationist Wyland and introduces simple steps residents can take to change their water usage habits. Each resident to take the pledge receives a free, family pass for five to the South Florida Living Green Fair November 14-15 at John U. Lloyd Park in Dania Beach. The winning city receives a one-year loan of an original Wyland mural, created at the South Florida Living Green Fair, to display in any public space. Back to top^ |
