- 13:20from the west off Fairfield Hill Road, drivers are now
- 13:23getting a nice surprise in the form of a giant
- 13:27welcome sign. Quote. It's been a great addition to bloomfield Field,
- 13:33Hoffland said on a secondary building adjacent to the Hoffland
- 13:37Funeral Home. Visitors can now see a huge red mural
- 13:41with large letters spelling out Bloomfield, with pieces of the
- 13:45city's history filled in each letter. The mural was completed
- 13:48over the summer by Benji Mattingley, a Washington County native
- 13:52and the current principal at Lebanon Elementary. Hofland credited Mattingly's
- 13:57quote god given talent end of quote, and Darryl Park's
- 14:01work on researching the historical aspects of mural which brought
- 14:04it all together. Haughland had seen Maddingley's work on the
- 14:08former Mordequez restaurant in downtown Springfield, and while he didn't
- 14:12know who Maddingly was at the time, Parks was able
- 14:15to get into contact with the artists via Johnny Bourne
- 14:17of the Stephen Foster Drama. Quote. I reached out to
- 14:21him and told him what I'd kind of like to
- 14:23do to brighten up Bloomfield. Houghlin said, It's hard to
- 14:26believe Bloomfield was a quiet, sleepy town end of quote,
- 14:30but now with additional restaurants and other activities available, the
- 14:34city in northeastern Nelson County had picked up its pace.
- 14:38As a result, Houghlin thought it would be a quote
- 14:41nice welcoming sign to Bloomfield end of quote. The mural's
- 14:46imagery within the letters features memories of the city's deep
- 14:49history in tobacco farming and farming in general. The bridge
- 14:53going across Simpson's Creek remembrances of former and current schools
- 14:58serving the Bloomfield area, Boating Eli, Brianna Elementary and Bloomfield
- 15:02High School, and Hofflin's Funeral Home. Those ideas came from
- 15:07Parks who did the research, and Mattingly put it down
- 15:10on a large cinder block canvas easily visible for those
- 15:14entering Bloomfield from the west. Quote. We all worked together
- 15:18because I wanted to make sure they had their representation
- 15:21and the images and other things that respected their community.
- 15:24Mattingly said, it's a great, small little community. End of quote.
- 15:29Mattingly said he wanted to show the true glove that
- 15:32was communicated to him for the community of Bloomfield. Quote.
- 15:36I couldn't ask for a better project than what Benji
- 15:39maddingly did. End of quote, Hoflin said. Mattingly said it
- 15:43got hot at times in the summer while making the mural,
- 15:46but never fear. He had plenty of help from people
- 15:49stopping by too. Or he had plenty of people stopping
- 15:52by to admire his artwork and drops off refreshments on
- 15:56occasion to show their appreciation. At the same time he
- 15:59would constructing Bloomfield's mural, he was working on another one
- 16:03for Lebanon, and there were some delays while fighting with
- 16:06the heat and the earlier reign that Mattingly was grateful
- 16:09that folks in Bloomfield were patient with the progress. Quote.
- 16:13I had tons of people come by and either just
- 16:16watched me paint or reminisce about the different things that
- 16:18they saw on the mural. Mattingly said. People non stop
- 16:23in the community always came up to see if I
- 16:25needed any drinks, some refreshments, paying me compliments and everything else.
- 16:30People going by blowing their horns left and right. I
- 16:33think the community really enjoyed just slowly being able to
- 16:36see it transform into a finished product. End of quote.
- 16:41That constant reaffirmation went a long way for the artist.
- 16:45Hofflin also said he got constant positive feedback on the
- 16:48project and he's proud of how it turned out. Quote.
- 16:52He did a wonderful job. You couldn't have asked for
- 16:56a better job. Hofflin said Daryl was very instrumental in
- 16:59howling us to get pictures and on all just came
- 17:02together at the right time to have the master artists
- 17:05painted out for us. End of quote. Ephram mcdell Behavioral
