Art Can Project | California Poppies



I had the good fortune to be selected to transform a 55-gallon trashcan into a work of art for the City of Santa Clarita, CA. I chose to paint California Poppies on my trashcan. Each spring out in the Antelope Valley the poppies bloom and the hillsides turn orange it is amazing and worth the drive from Los Angeles. The California Poppy Reserve is a great place to experience the spectacle. My good friend Shoshana and I spent a lovely afternoon enjoying the display and taking pictures one blustery spring afternoon. Using the day in the desert as my inspiration for the Art Can was a perfect fit.
