Spotlight on THE ARTS: FAME-WALL

FAME-WALL is a wonderful portrait gallery that salutes those individuals who not only have made a significant impact in the world of arts and entertainment, but most importantly have also inspired so many others through their equally amazing charitable work. FAME-WALL was created by actor/producer Dale Badway, and was designed to pay homage to the creative icons from the arts and entertainment arenas, bringing together the stage, screen and music along with the paper, paint and canvas. All of the portraits are custom-painted by the legendary and super-talented Mr. Jim Warren, who was the first person as an art painter to win a Grammy award for the category of 'Album Design-Album Packaging.' The work that garnered Jim the historic victory was for the cover of Grammy award-winning rock artist Bob Seger's 1980 album 'Against The Wind.' Badway compares Jim's brilliant brand of artwork to the likes of globally-renowned painters Salvador Dali and Norman Rockwell.

 FAME-WALL Entertainment Marketing Executive Angela Crockett also added that what makes FAME-WALL so unique is how they particularly select the honorees in that they are not being solely recognized for their creative talents, but more so for the utilization of their 'star-power' to move the world forward through their incredible philanthropic efforts. The past honorees include music icons Kool & The Gang, Chaka Khan and The Beach Boys, actors John Stamos, Sean Hayes and Kelsey Grammer and actresses Kristin Chenowith, Angelica Page and Brooke Shields.

FAME-WALL currently has homes in both New York City and Hollywood, CA. A third installment is in the works for London, United Kingdom in the very near future.
