So Cal Painter
Southern California has a reputation in the rest of America as the capital of the crazy nuts. I don’t see why. We may be the first to start the next hot trend, and the last to give up the twenty year old fad. But we are not crazy. It’s just the weather. I was told once that more offbeat religions are started in So Cal because it is one of the few places in the country where you can ware a robe and sandals all year long.
This comical image tells about a person that is just a little different. The old van painted with the kaleidoscope of colors, the license plate and the sign in the window all say welcome to Southern California. This photographer is narrowed down the information in the scene to just enough to get the point across. There is nothing I can think that could be added or taken away from this illustration.

Thanks Jim,
We were up in Santa Barbara on Sunday and I came across this van from one of the vendors. My wife said “you got to get a picture of that” !! My thought was as you figured out, just show only enought information to give the viewer a hint.
