A collection of creative animation

The painting includes one image for each of the 26 letters of the alphabet — including Cornell landmarks like the statue of Ezra Cornell and the Herbert F. Johnson Museum of Art. Other Ithaca geographic, cultural, and business icons such as the Ithaca Commons, Robert Treman State Park, and the Ithaca Farmer’s Market are also featured in the artwork.
“There’s a lot of community pride [in Ithaca], which is definitely something you need to do the alphabet,” he said. “[The painting contains] what I would think signifies Ithaca. People who have lived here for a long time might have a different opinion.”

Stefan’s mother, Melinda Curtin has partnered with nonprofits in the past to create alphabets for several other cities including Los Angeles, Seattle, Tacoma, Wash. and Portland, Ore.
Following in his mother’s footsteps, Stefan is sending a portion of the proceeds to the nonprofits Hospicare and Palliative Care Services.
