The Maine Department of Labor Mural



All images and content copyright 1998-2018: Judy Taylor Fine Art, Seal Cove, Maine



In the summer of 2007, I responded to a Call to Artists sponsored by the Maine Arts Commission. The call was to

create an artwork depicting the " History of Labor in the State of Maine". After a reviewing process, I was selected to do

the commission. Along the way, I met some wonderful, and dedicated people. I also got an excellent education in

Maine History.

Below, is the 11 panel mural that was painted on 4 x 8 sheets of specially prepared MDO board. The panels were

applied to adjoining walls in the Dept. of Labor reception area. In total, the mural measures 36 feet in length, and is

nearly 8 feet tall.

After being removed in 2011, the mural has found a home in the Maine State Museum, where all Mainers can view it

free of charge.
