The seldom used, south facing, back stairs of Santa Barbara's Paseo
Nuevo have facinating patterns and colors that show spectacularly in
the bright California Central Coast sun. However its extreme straight
vertical symmetry has an obvious sensual exception. The
inspired explanation is that during a construction
lunch break, a sunbather fell asleep. And upon their
return, the workers decided to build around and thus not
distrub the sunbather. Although some stair climbers have since
noticed, none has complained.
The "Paseo Nuevo Stairs" image is part of the Sealth body of work which are digital images of landscapes, scenics,
and the human form and are based on locations in the Santa Barbara,
Eastern Sierra, High Sierra and Central Coast of California.
