The Painting of a "Cool Globe", 7 years and 2 continents later


 2007
"Ripples"- 
6' "cool globe" painted for the
Clinton Climate Initiative, displayed at Navy Pier, Chicago








2012
After traveling across the United States from Los Angeles to
San Francisco, the Cool Globes travelled to Europe:
Geneva, Copenhagen. . .
This is the same globe in Amsterdam, 2012



2014
The same globe  now across from the Wailing Wall in Jerusalem.
Notice how intense  the color remains after 7 years of travel, across 2 continents, and in all kinds of weather.
A testament to the quality of Golden Paints.

crows and seagulls casting shadows across the sand. Full of mystery, and the promise of what lies beneath, what lands lie across the ocean. Heavy air of fog of paynes grey/titan buff wrapped in sea brine, to powerful cerulean blue skies, to tide pools with transparent layers of greengold and sap greens.
