Picture Rocks Mosaics
Picture Rocks is a rural community primarily centered around two schools (Desert Winds Elementary and Picture Rocks Intermediate), a community center, and a community pool/ skate park. The Picture Rocks Safe Routes to School Project created sidewalks and walking paths so kids could safely walk to school and their recreational areas. The community wanted art that would unite these main areas together- art that would guide local kids from place to place and art that would beautify the empty spaces between places. I created glass marble mosaics to show the way.
