BOARD OF ADVISORS:

Melanie Taylor

Melanie Taylor is the artist cedited for the premonition of the serigraph panting gifted to the Founders of the foundation, now entitled, “The Phenomena of the Armand Hammer Titanic Masterpiece with Liberty to All Nations”.  In 1985, Melanie worked with David Wolper to create a painting commemorating “THE STATUE OF LIBERY CENTENNIAL” celebration, which took place in 1986.  Mr. Wolper fully collaborated with Melanie on the composition of the picture to provide many of the details of the event such as the fireworks, lasers, tall ships, and celebrities in attendance to name a few.   In the painting Melanie envisioned that the essence of the Statue of Liberty was all about the immigrants that have come to America and made a lasting contribution to our nation. 

In that spirit, Melanie painted several versions of immigrant ships, but David Wolper was very adamant that the ships should look a certain way.  He insisted that she paints authentic immigrant ships with smoke stacks and other details, so Melanie changed the ships to fit with his vision. 

The finished serigraph entitled, “THE STATUE OF LIBERTY CENTENNIAL”, was signed by David Wolper, with a special message, and hangs in the Statue of Liberty Museum at the base of the Statue of Liberty.

Today, the Statue of Liberty painting is a global sensation being acknowledged as that of a premonition for the raising of the Titanic.  A few months ago, an art dealer contacted Melanie to inform of the buzz surrounding our painting within the art world.  He spoke of a phenomenon that pertained to “THE STATUE OF LIBERTY CENTENNIAL”, and forwarded to her attention the public information that was circulating about the phenomena and its historic impact as a cultural experience of the diversified cultures within the American homeland. 

Credited as being that of a renowned artist and am honored to be an officially licensed artist for: The Walt Disney Company, Warner Bros., Universal Studios, LucasFilm, Hanna-Barbara, Turner Entertainment, D.C. Comics, The United States Olympic Committee, The Coca-Cola Company, The Los Angeles Dodgers, and the Tournament of Roses to name a few.

Melanie Taylor is one of the first serigraphic artists to be licensed by The Walt Disney Company to commemorate important Disney events and celebrations.  Some of my most famous images include: Mickey Mouse’s 60th Birthday, The 15th Anniversary of Star Wars, The 10th Anniversary of E.T., Michael Jordan’s SpaceJam, The Main Street Electrical Parade, The Flintstones, The Los Angeles Dodgers, and Celebration 2000 (for The Tournament of Roses and Roy Disney’s Fantasia 2000) to name a few.  I have enclosed a press kit, a book of my artwork, and a videotape to give you a better understanding of my work.
