Built in the 1940s at N. Main and Michaux. It's been several different stores and restaurants through the years. Today it displays public art

Placed about most towns, these utility boxes are generally ignored by everyone. As part of it's beautification program the city of San Luis Obispo commissioned local artists to paint mini murals on the utility boxes. I find them to be great examples of the artistic talent in town.

Part of San Luis Obispo's city beautification efforts. Local artists painting the utility boxes scattered about town.

my buddy Maggie just went through a ton of drama with a woman that bought one of her paintings during a show we had at Art Farm. at one point when the drama got super thick.. the woman told Maggie "I don't think I want to support local art anymore".. super passive aggressive, which is really common in Seattle.

 

I had to borrow the phrase.. I love it!!

I think this may have been an old mid-century Gulf Oil Gas/Filling Station. It is now the Rowdy Maui - a ladies clothing shop that also sells funky gifts and local art. As their website proudly proclaims, they have been "keeping downtown Rockport weird since 2006."

A view of Arts on Queen, a beloved gallery and gift shop at 2198 Queen Street East in Toronto. Showcasing original Canadian artwork, handcrafted jewelry, and locally made gifts, the space has long been a hub for creative expression in the Beaches community.

Adding to my collection of photos of Utility boxes in San Luis Obispo, Ca.

They are part of SLO Art, the city beautification project. Designed and painted by local artists, it is an effort to make the dull gray metal boxes more of an addition to neighborhoods.

It started in the Downtown area and has now spread to most of the town.

The clouds hover over one half of the mural, blue sky over the other.

Na famosa Place du Tertre, em Montmartre, Paris, artistas de rua capturam momentos e rostos em retratos e caricaturas, mantendo viva a tradição artística do bairro. Este ponto histórico é um símbolo da efervescência cultural que caracteriza a capital francesa.

I found some more random graffiti around town today. I wish I knew who was putting up these tags around town so they could decorate my basement walls.

 

I shot this with with my 24-70mm f/2.8 lens and my Nikon D800E.

What a better way to end the day, grab your loved one and head down to the beach to take in a stunning sunset. The suns rays reaching up to the sky behind the clouds as the sun starts to sink below the horizon. Just a few more minutes and it will be gone for the evening, until tomorrow for another night on the beach. Venice Beach Florida.

Painted Utility Boxes in San Luis Obispo, ca.

This particular one is signed by Marcie Hawthorne, a fairly well known local artist. (she has also done several others and are some of the best)

... oil on canvas, 18" x 18". My final painting for the local studio tour on the last two weekends of the month (making 18 new paintings since last year's show). Title refers to the dire circumstances for monarch butterflies who are disappearing at a tragic rate. This image is based on a photo I took of the one monarch I saw in my area last summer (used to always see many dozens--including eggs and caterpillars; but no eggs nor caterpillars last year nor this). Did see a few butterflies this summer around my property.

GASPARILLA ISLAND LIGHTHOUSE

The 105’ tower was built in 1881 by the Phoenix Iron Company of Trenton, N.J. It began service just north of Lewes, Delaware as the Delaware Breakwater Rear Range Light, known locally as the Green Hill Lighthouse. In 1927, the lighthouse was reassembled and installed on Gasparilla Island just south of the town of Boca Grande by the U.S. Lighthouse Service. The tower was painted white and a 4th order Fresnel lens was installed and lit on January 1, 1932. The light was not manned, but continuously maintained by

 

the Light Keepers of Gasparilla Island Light Station, better known as Port Boca Grande Lighthouse.

 

It is the only rear range to work in two states and was Determined Eligible by the Keeper of the National Register in 2014. After rigorous review, BIPS was awarded stewards of the light by the U.S. Coast Guard in 2016. With the support of the community, BIPS raised $1.3 million to restore the lighthouse to its former glory in 2017. With the help of a fabulous restoration team, Razorback LLC, Alex Klahm Architectural Metals and Design, Ken Smith Architects and Atlantic Engineering, it opened up to its first public climb in April of 2017 and won a Florida Trust Award in 2018 for outstanding achievement.

Tucked away among the narrow lanes of Port Isaac, England, this small display of local artwork captures the creative spirit of one of Cornwall’s most picturesque fishing villages. For centuries, Port Isaac’s steep streets and sheltered harbour have been shaped by fishing, maritime trade, and coastal life, inspiring generations of artists drawn to its distinctive character and dramatic Cornwall setting.
