Bob's attitude for
public art is that which involves public input and involvement.

At the Eatonville's three day

"Art on the
Ave" Summer Festival
Flowers painted by
Tacoma Community
On the corner of Sixth
Avenue & Anderson the community takes part in painting flowers on
the mural. We found out that what we learned in Kindergarten stays
with us throughout our lives.
This
old building sat on Auburn Way and became an eye sore for the community.
The City of Auburn partnered with Auburn Chamber of Commerce and hired Bob
to mentor middle school students to paint 8 panels (4'x 8') to add to the
top of the building. Bob suggested a train theme, since rail was an
integral part of Auburn’s economic history in
relation to the Pacific
Northwest’s growth and development. Bob suggested painting the
background of the building, to localize it’s recognition and
relationship to the community by using Mt. Rainier which can be seen from
the Auburn Valley. Bob drew out the design and instructed community
volunteers in painting and installation of the panels. The corner is now a
place in which the community is proud to have been partners in it’s
beautification.
