ARTIST STATEMENT

I have always loved old buildings and signs and saw that many of the signs I loved were disappearing. I wanted to capture them before they were gone. So I started taking photos of them, and rather than hide the flaws and age in the signs and buildings, I try to celebrate the flaws when I digitally illustrate them. It didn’t take long for me to realize, these were more than just signs I thought were beautiful. Everyone has their own story about these places. And I have heard some great ones. I have heard about many nights at Bill and Nada’s, or how they went to Snelgrove’s, when they were kids, and not to mention the MANY, MANY misadventures at Coachman’s and Bar-X. This is my little way of trying to keep the city from becoming just another place, and keeping it special.

About the library

The pleasing design of the Anderson-Foothill Branch has two unique elements as part of its plan. The first is a passive solar energy design that includes earth berming, window placement for solar heating, and zone supplemental heating/cooling. The second element of this 14,900 square foot community library built in 1985, expanded in 1992 and in 2002, is a modular design.

The Anderson-Foothill Branch has a meeting room available for public use with tables, chairs, and a projector screen. The Anderson-Foothill Branch's outdoor amphitheater is a popular location for summer concerts. Free parking is available to the north and south of the building, and free wi-fi access is provided throughout the library.
