Kurt Wenner was inspired as a young artist by the quality, skill, and grace of master drawings. Unable to find an art school teaching mastery, he moved to Europe and learned by working directly from the masterpieces of Western civilization. With time and patience, he achieved his goal of understanding the classical language of form.

The awesome paintings and murals featured within the Catacombs at the Legacy Center are the work of award-winning Master Artist Kurt Wenner. He has created three dimensional pavement art illustrations in China, Taiwan, Indonesia, Italy, and throughout the United States. In 1985, National Geographic documented his unique and innovative works of art in their award-winning film, Masterpieces in Chalk.
