Jacob Dickson spray paint artist

Jacob fancies himself the next great Michelangelo of spray paint.  The previous renter here had for some readon stuck the back of a semi truck next to the garage.  We turned it over to Jacob for a spray paint studio.  Imagine our surprise when driving up the highway behind our house, we realized that the painting wasn't all happening on the inside! 

Unfortunately, his desire to show off his talents runs in opposition of City of Arlington, Public Nuisance Ordinance 1286 which prohibits, "The existence or maintenance of graffiti or other defacement of public and private property, including walls, rocks, bridges, buildings, fences, gates, vehicles, signs, road surfaces and other structures, trees, and all other real and personal property within the City."  We let him enjoy it for a few days and then he painted over it.



Miriam worships everything about Jacob and loved it.
All teenagers should have a little sibling to keep them human. 

Now that he's painted over his studio exterior walls, he's planning on making some fish ( see the public art project "Some things fishy in Arlington") and doing grafitti magic on them.  Hopefully that won't run counter to the law.  He'll still get the exposure he wants because we'll stick them on our hill.
