What's Watts?

April 2014


My whirlwind Los Angeles visit with Becky included a visit to the Watts Towers -  a monumental
architectural sculpture by Simon Rodia.  I learned about Rodia and his work through my Art Study Club, so it was thrilling to see his most influential work in person.  Mixed media work is fascinating to me!  This 55-year old installation attracts over 40,000 people every year.
