In Southern California, one of the surest ways to get people to notice public art is to put it near a freeway.
This week, officials are scheduled to unveil a new bridge in Arcadia for the Metro Gold Line extension. The bridge, designed by Minnesota artist Andrew Leicester, straddles the I-210 freeway in Arcadia.
The structure will be a fully functioning light-rail bridge that doubles as a public sculpture. Leicester’s design was chosen from 17 others in a competitive process. Leicester worked with L.A. design consultant AECOM as well as and the bridge’s builder, Skanska USA, on the final design and construction.

I think that what you posted was actually very logical.
But, consider this, what if you typed a catchier
post title? I am not suggesting your content isn’t solid, but suppose you added something that grabbed people’s attention?
I mean Freeway Art | Slow Painting is a little boring. You might peek
at Yahoo’s home page and note how they write article headlines to grab viewers to open the links. You might add a video or a pic or two to get people interested about everything’ve got to say.
Just my opinion, it might bring your posts a little bit more interesting.
