Veteran Art Gala

Mario sustained burns over 54% of his body and lost his right arm, vision in his right eye, and four fingers on his left hand. During his recovery, he turned to painting as part of his healing. Over the last 12 years Mario has painted works of art that have been featured in many places- the DFW Airport, the Joslyn Art Museum in Omaha Nebraska, SAMMC Medical Center Lobby, and in many other cities, homes, and places of business around the country.
