BRIDGEPORT — Three brightly colored canvases hang on the wall inside Bridgeport Hospital’s REACH outpatient psychiatric office on Barnum Avenue. Each canvas is adorned with silhouettes of children of various ages, shapes and sizes running, painting and reading in a rainbow of colors — purple, orange, red, blue, green and hot pink. Taken together, the canvases create a vivid, eye-popping mural. Created by Trumbull artist Sharon Leichsenring, the piece is meant to bring some vitality and hope into the building, which provides mental health services for clients. “I think the colors and the subject matter bring joy,” said Leichsenring, 66. “I think it’s uplifting and can raise the spirits.
