Marty K. makes front page of Gridley News !!

The Klopfenstein family is currently creating a long-term niche in the Gridley community -- as my brother, artist Marty K, is painting a life-sized mural on Center Street in Gridley.  As I understand it, he is painting this mural on the west side of "the old post-office"...so people will face East from Center Street to view it -- just 1/4 block up from the old grain elevator office.  This photo and headline covered the lower 1/2 of the front page of this week's Gridley Village Times!
If anyone can prove me wrong, please do....but I think this talent might have been inherited from the "Slagell" side (my mother, Catherine, had an aunt from N. Carolina who was a bona-fide artist).   You might want to click on the picture to enlarge it.  Anyway, congratulations Marty!!!
