Brush Strokes

Artist:  John Sonnier

Material:  Indiana Limestone

Commissioned by Montgomery County in 2005

Brush Strokes was conceived from an interior wall detail of the historic Art Deco Silver Theatre. This piece is reminiscent of many 18th-Century French carvings, with its raised fleur-de-lis style cradling the hand-carved lettering. Rendered in Indiana Limestone, the carving serves as a monument to the revitalization of Downtown Silver Spring, MD.
