Lill Tony's Sketch

  1. It started with an idea. Lill Tony Ramvik asked Tamara Keiper to make some renderings for some outdoor seating to go on a grassy area for outdoor concerts. This painting would be used to solicit funds from other donors and to sell prints to raise funds for the Amfi seating.
