Landmark Shorts
Description: Place your bets! Opening on July 1, 1969, with 400 slot machines, 503 hotel rooms and a 14,000 sq ft ground-floor casino, the Landmark was the first high-rise casino in Nevada. The three-story cupola dome at the top of the tower featured a smaller second casino, restaurants and a night club. The Landmark was closed in August 1990 and was later demolished in 1995.
Description: Artist illustration of a watercolor I painted depicts the iconic Cadillac Ranch on Route 66 near Amarillo Texas. Rows of rainbow-colored Cadillacs stand partially buried, their gleaming fins pointing skyward. A bright blue sky filled with fluffy white clouds provides a striking backdrop to the playful and whimsical scene. The loose brushstrokes and soft washes of color capture the dreamlike quality of this unique roadside attraction.
