Tomorrow, sculptor and scuba diver, Thomas McDonald and his students from the Riviera Beach Maritime Academy will be revealing their latest project. McDonald and his artistically gifted students have been working hard on a beautiful mermaid sculpture that will live underwater. The mermaid, named Andrea, is made of concrete and is supposed to be submerged tomorrow off of the Coast of Palm Beach County.

McDonald has created a number of other under water sculptures that currently rest on the sea floor off of the Breakers Reef in Palm Beach. Last year, McDonald donated three 1,500-pound shark sculptures. The three cement hammerhead shark sculptures were sunk into the crystal clear waters of the Lake Worth Lagoon at Phil Foster Park’s Snorkel Reef in Riviera Beach. McDonald together with the Palm Beach County Department of Environmental Resources Management worked countless hours to develop this project. Phil Foster Park’s Snorkel Reef was the special place chosen for these sculptures to be submerged. The Snorkel Reef is the ideal location for these beautiful sculptures because of its close proximity to the Gulf Stream it always has good visibility and warm waters filled with sea life.

The new mermaid sculpture is modeled after a Palm Beach County resident, Andrea Torrente, who is battling breast cancer. If you would like to see this beautiful under water art gallery and support an amazing local talent and cause, please visit the Phil Foster Park in off of Singer Island in Riviera Beach.
