HERITAGE & CULTURAL ARTS COMMISSION DATE: December 8,2016 TO: Honorable Chair and Commissioners • FROM: Tegan McLane,Cultural Arts&Heritage Manager SUBJECT: Utility Box Art Selection EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: The Heritage and Cultural Arts Commission will consider utility box art design applications from five artists and make a recommendation to City Council. FINANCIAL IMPACT: Staff estimates the cost for a Utility Box Art Pilot Program—including artist payments and Staff time—to be approximately $7,700. Per the Public Art Ordinance, this project is eligible for funding with Public Art Fund monies,and Council has approved$8,000 for the purpose of this program. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends that the Commission select and recommend City Council approval of professional artists for the three boxes along Village Parkway, and consider recommending professional artists for the.boxes nearest to Dublin High School. • DESCRIPTION: At the March 1,2016 meeting,the City Council approved and funded a Utility Box Art Pilot Program to paint six boxes in the Village Parkway District and Dublin High School neighborhood. The Commission recommended the three boxes nearest Dublin High School (A, B, and C) be reserved for student artists working under the supervision of an adult artist or art teacher, and the three boxes in the Village Parkway District(D,E, and F) be awarded to professional artists or student artists. The City Council directed Heritage and Cultural Arts Commission to choose a theme, and the theme chosen was "variations on a shamrock." ITEM NO: 8.1 Page 1 of 3 Staff issued a Call for Artists on October 24, publicizing the opportunity through normal City channels , (website, etc.), as well as via email to local public school art teachers, private art studios, registrants in the Cultural Arts Database, nearby cities with successful utility box art programs,and the California Cultural Arts Council web site.The deadline to apply was November 21. No student applications were received for boxes A, B, and C, although Staff is aware that teachers did promote the opportunity numerous times to students. Five professional artists applied, submitting a total of nine designs for consideration for boxes D, E, and F. The artists are: • Suzanne Gayle of Hayward — Two designs for any box. "Shamrock Community" depicts an orange cat playing in a field of shamrocks and a golden dog romping in shamrocks. "Electric Shamrock" uses bright colors to emphasize a happy,cheerful community. It is also a nod to Dublin's growing technology sector. Lisa Long of Dublin — Three designs for any box. Design #1 is bold, graphic design in blue, green and black, depicting shamrock covered hills with silhouettes from Dublin history including a rancher leading a horse,a barn, Old St. Raymond church and the Kolb House.Design#2 is a modem take on a field of clovers with a pattern of 6" circles with a clover in the center of each. Design#3 is a fusion of the heritage of Dublin settlers with those who live here today. It is done in German folk art style (Kolbs) and features good luck symbols from Chinese,Arab/Hebrew and German cultures as well as the shamrock,with sayings about good luck on the box sides. John Osgood of Danville — One design for box E, depicting an abstracted green shamrock on the Village side and blue bird "representing nature that is found right here in your own backyard" on the Lewis side of the box.The artist uses layers of color to add texture and dimensionality. Kimberly Overton of Castro Valley - One design for any box, titled "Reaching for a Shamrock," which features hands of various skin tones reaching for shamrocks against a light green background and was inspired by a poem the artist wrote. Kalani Ware of Fairfield —Two designs, one for box E and one for box F. Both box designs are abstract color and texture to portray "connection, diversity and social interaction." The colors represent the Irish community. The artists'resumes,designs,and statements are attached. Staff recommends the Heritage and Cultural Arts Commission choose a preferred design for each of boxes D,E,and F. In light of the absence of any student submissions for boxes A,B, and C,Staff recommends the Commission relax the Call for Artists specifications that six different artists be chosen and that only students be considered for the boxes near the high school. The three boxes in the high school neighborhood are frequent targets of graffiti vandals. The desire to use public art to deter graffiti on specific "problem" boxes was a significant factor in establishing this pilot program. Staff believes there may be viable designs from among the professional submissions,which the Commission may wish to consider for boxes A,B,or C.As the boxes are all approximately the same size, Staff believes artists who indicated "any box" would be willing to modify designs to fit boxes near the high school,if asked to do so.

I operate my woman-owned business in Mural Painting, Graphic Design, and Art Instruction and Teaching. My original murals,paintings, and sculptures can be viewed at over 25 schools, libraries, and municipal areas throughout the San Francisco Bay Area. Public commissions include: projects for the City of Hayward; Hayward Unified School District; City of Fremont; City of San Carlos; and numerous parent/youth organizations. I have also created private murals for homes and business offices throughout the Bay Area. I have self-published an instruction course and book for teaching workshops on Art for non-artist teachers in the classroom. Star Arts artwork ranges from acrylic-on-canvas to large public works on building exteriors/interiors. Public works range from utility boxes to multi-story murals. What makes my artwork unique is my creative use of space,including awkward corners and wall indentations that many artists overlook. I thoroughly research my design themes to include both historical references and site details to ensure that artwork `flows' in harmony with its location. Collaboration with my clients is vital throughout this creative process to ensure their satisfaction. In addition to murals my portfolio includes: Graphic design on logos and brochures;mixed media; 2-D/3-D acrylic/canvas works;paint sculpture; and wood cutouts. The course I created on Art includes a teaching seminars for non-artist schoolteachers about incorporating art and art techniques into the core curriculum. My course teaches creative ways to include art into the classroom, geared to the teacher. Working on large public installations goes beyond imagining unique designs,creating scale models and painting the mural. I have experience in obtaining necessary permits, insurance, and right of way clearance before starting all projects. Working on large-scale projects has provided me with experience in preparing large surfaces, operating large equipment such as boom and scissors lifts, finishing with an anti-graffiti coating and especially collaborating with Facilities directors and City personnel. I have been featured in numerous publications including"Daily Review",CSU East Bay"The Pioneer"' The Tri-City Voice,Inside Bay area.com, the Hayward Highlights as well as a public showing in"On The Bay Today"KRON-TV about my murals in Hayward. My artwork was recently included in a San Francisco Chronicle special section on Hayward(6/26/16). Showing support for my community is important to me, and has inspired me to serve as Commissioner on both"Keep Hayward Clean& Green"Task force and Alameda County Arts Commission,as well as the Hayward Volunteer awards committee, social committee, and school parent organizations. I am grateful for the opportunity to donate my time as well as art and graphic services for community events. Suzanne Gayle Biography I graduated from Memphis University,moving to the Bay Area in 1987. I live near CSU East Bay in Hayward with my husband Steve, my two daughters, Violet and Tanzenite and several cats and dogs rescued from animal shelters. I enjoy sharing the love of the arts with my daughters who love drawing, theater and music. My entire family also shares in community pride by volunteering. My husband is a founder and Chairman of the Board for Silver Oak High School, the first and only free Montessori Public High School in the Bay Area. Our daughters organized neighborhood-wide recycling program to raise funds in support of their schools that has been used to help send kids on school trips with financial aid. We firmly believe that the community is what you make it,which is why we connect so well with people in areas that we research for art projects. Involvement with other artists in my family and with friends inspired me to get into the arts early. After graduating with a B.A. from Memphis University, I operated a crafts business for fashion art pieces, in addition to working fulltime in interior design and decorating. I returned to college to re-invent my artwork styles by studying graphics arts and computer graphics and web-design at Foothill College in 1998-2000. I have since created several mix-media pieces including an award-winning anti-smoking art video piece. I started an artist's showcase website for Purple Dolphin Arts, and formed my own professional studio, Star Arts LLC. Suzanne Gayle Artist Background Star Arts LLC was formed as an outgrowth of my design business, Purple Dolphin Arts and incorporated in May 2008 to meet large-scale commission and insurance requirements for my growing business. I am the Founder, President and sole-owner of the corporation. I have extensive experience with government contracting requirements and regulations, and have worked with city and school district Facilities directors in multiple communities. As an Alameda County Art Commissioner, I am very active in the local community, children's, and art associations. I have taught as an art instructor at several public schools,actively promoting `Art Is Education Month",providing workshops for several schools and organizations. Serving as Vice President on a PTA board, I initiated an ART committee and enrolled the school to participate in the National Reflections Art Program. For the Woodland Estates Community Association in Hayward, I have been the past Newsletter Editor and Co-Chair the social committee in charge of children's holiday events. My artworks tell layered stories to draw the observer in for a deeper look and includes: Trompe d'Oeil, layering of original digital images and paints, altering of lighting, traditional techniques as well as modern advances in technical imaging,rounding or merging of perspective, enhancements to the art boundaries as well as the art with mixed media.

This design highlights some important parts of Dublin's history and geography, including the Kolb house and barn, Old Saint Raymond's Church, the Alamilla Spring, the heritage oaks, and the hills and shamrocks. Because much of my artwork is in paper, my design has a bold, graphic style. 8755 Wicklow Court,Dublin,CA 94568 LISALONGART.COM Lisa LongArt@GMAIL.COM 925-640-4531 Lisa Long 4' 4 . 4, 4 Design #2 +♦}+4♦ +�++}♦4 Any Box(D, E, F) 4th+++4+4 ,t++ +s+ + +++++ IN; , + 4 41 4 1+4 P+++++4+4* bki+++++41.1.+41+4:+-4•+4'8.+++: 0 0 0.-.,÷±±4. 4444 �44+4♦44J4J. 4444 0 + v7 ♦ ♦ 4A f + 7 -7-- -� 7 `+$ 4 '` ♦ +4 44 ♦ ♦ +4 4 ' 0 4 D • t++. pii*++4+4-44.V.-44+4+++++4+41+4+44: 0 0 + r +♦3 41♦4 +4+*+ 4+ 4 4 14 0 4+4 1++ ++41+4 .41+++++++4 4+++4+4+4 1+4+0 00 444+4+4+44444+444+4+. `444 4+ 444. 4 111. 11 Lisa Long Design #2 Detail Any Box (D, E, F) ,q i � x . f F �? 7; \y • r '" r + + r I 41°,,, „,,,_ . ..:'„' + ' 41 1 I } + ''' 4411° . j /.... + .'''

LISA LONG Design #2 Some of the earliest uses of the word "shamrock" in the English language are in Irish poems, which used the word to describe a field covered in clovers. This design is a modern take on a clover-covered field. Each circle will have a diameter of approximately six inches, though this will be adjusted depending on the size of the box in order to render the wrap around the corners in an aesthetically pleasing manner. 8755 Wicklow Court,Dublin,CA 94568 LISALONGART.COM LisaLongArt©GMAIL.COM 925-640-4531 Lisa Long 1 Design #3 Any Box (D, E, F) - I ettok. ..... .1. ..e. 410-- P 4 is;k:4) YOUR 111141p , ' 4 a• 1 ' ' dipf ?

It's done in a German folk art style, paying homage to the Kolb family's German heritage. At first glance, this looks like a simple design. Upon closer inspection, you will see that it contains good luck symbols from many of the cultures represented in the area today: the FU (Chinese character), the hamsa/hamesh (Arab and Hebrew), the distelfink (a German symbol). The shamrock is prominently featured to reflect Dublin's Irish connection. The shorter sides of the box integrate messages about good luck. 8755 Wicklow Court,Dublin,CA 94568 LISALONGART.COM LisaLongArt@GMAIL.COM 925-640-4531 Y ATTACHMENT 3 Design Proposal from Professional

S John Osgood Artist Statement The colors, layers and shapes of my paintings are inspired by what I see in my surroundings both natural and man-made. I am process oriented and begin my work with loose brush strokes and swaths of aerosol focusing initially on color and composition. During the creation process, I add layers of color which add texture and dimensionality. The proposed design for the City of Dublin includes an abstracted Shamrock in many shades of green and a blue bird representing the nature that is found "right here in your own backyard".

In my work, Im searching for a deeper meaning;I want to connect with people from every aspect of life. I would like to share my creativity in public spaces around the world and engage with the community. Some of the main themes I try to portray in my work is connection,diversity,and social interactions within society and the environment.The various shapes I use represent connection, similar to the connection of us as a people in society. I represent diversity by the use of various colors,patterns, as well as textures. My color palette often changes;sometimes I use colors that pop,and sometimes I use colors that are subtle and calm, but I try to maintain the foundation of my core themes and distinctive style. For this proposal,I have incorporated my abstract style with colors that represent the Irish community. Box E&F share similar shapes and different colors that are connected. Box F has the a shamrock symbol in the middle.
