The exhibit is on the north interior wall of the Mineral King Room in the Three Rivers Historical Museum. (Really, shouldn’t this be called a “history” museum rather than a “historical” museum? This bothers me. The museum isn’t historical; however, I didn’t name it and can read their sign and website and then call them what they call themselves.)
- The exhibit is called Native Voices.
- The designer chose the colors.
- The designs are from Yokuts baskets.
- I will freehand the design rather than tape.
- It will take a lot of time to paint out the drips, wobbles, and graphite smudges, but less time than taping and then hoping everything stays in place when it dries and the tape is removed.
- I only traced the main designs and will have to figure out how to do the “shadows”.
- I would dearly love to know how the designer thought I’d get the designs onto the wall.
This last picture shows the design with its “shadows”, along with three of gray people-ish shapes to give an idea of how the finished wall will look. On the left is The Gathering, in the middle is Quail (but the lighter versions won’t be included), and on the right is Rattlesnake.
