Villarreal is the artist who has been selected to paint all of the monumental murals for the walls of the Corpus Christi Catholic Church. These murals represent biblical scenarios of the Old and New Testament and are part of an epic ecumenical project, the FLORIDA COLONIAL, CULTURAL, AND CONVENTION CENTER (FLACC), which is certain to become a historical focus point for the arts of the Americas. Some of the sketches for the murals are already displayed at the church today.
