My first Public Art Project was two locations on El Paseo, in Palm Desert. The metal boxes often contain computers and require a light palette to avoid over-heating the metal and cooking the computer boards.
In painting this, I selected the "smoketree, indigenous to our desert, with the palest green-gray spikes, like puffs of smoke, and added tall blooming Yucca spires for a light palette. I added Brittle Bush, with bright yellow daisy-like flowers, also named by the Padre's in the 1800, "Incensio," used by the Spanish Padres as Incense, once they ran out of their incense in their missions.

Thank you Karen... a symbol of Art triumphing over Technology. It required tons of getting in the middle of the street to get perspective an modifying design... Hmmmm perhaps that is why they required a $1million Liability Insurance policy carried by me for the duration of the painting process.
