A frequently updated collection of outdoor murals and other public artworks.

This page reflects the talents of my late wife, Pamelia deGaines (1939-1989).  Most of her collages were inspired by The Book of Imaginary Beings  by Jorge Luis Borges.  No paints were used in their creation — just black ink and colored tissue paper.  Most works were featured in a 1970 show at Pam's gallery on Capitol Hill in Washington, D.C.  Included are three later drawings.

These insights into life (and death) also are by Pam deGaines.  All of her works are previously unpublished online.

Images were created using the open-source program, Fractint v.20.

Photographs are combined with mirror-images of themselves for special effect.
