I just polished these three outdoor wayside panels for Washington State Parks.<\/strong> Soon they’ll be installed at Rosario Beach, Deception Pass State Park near Anacortes, right on the beach at one of the most heavily-explored tide pool areas in Washington. The three paintings tell the stories of how the tide works to create this amazingly rich ecosystem, how people messed it all up with boots and flip-flops – and finally how to walk here without screwing it up again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I want to show you the third panel, the one about their rope path.<\/strong> These tide pools were decimated by thousands of feet, but the park stretched a yellow rope out to the best pools and signs (like this one) tell people to ‘Follow the Ropes”. It worked, amazingly enough, and the tide pool life returned – crabs and anemones, kelp and sculpins. It was such an easy idea, and now the place is returning to normal. Seeing this is one of the many reasons I still get a charge out of painting art for public places.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These panels are 36″ x 24″ and will be made of high-pressure laminate and probably last longer than I will.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thanks for reading this week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
