Artist’s Qualifications:
I’ve been doing sculpture, painting and drawing my whole life. I studied art at DePaul University and
have taken many art classes at Diablo Valley College. I find I need to do some kind of art on a daily basis
to feel complete. I’m always inspired by nature and love to spend time outdoors. I love to observe
animals, birds and plants and always feel exhilarated by them. I feel that nature is sacred and I hope to
encourage other people to appreciate it with my art.
I use drawing as the basis of my work. I feel like the lines in the work are important and I’ve
experimented with different mediums in order to emphasize them. I am currently using markers for
drawing and then adding watercolor as I feel it doesn’t obscure the lines as much as acrylic or oil.
Did a mural on commission, Chicago, IL 1982
Had a painting in a show, Chicago Public Library, 1984
Participated in a show in Danville, Alamo Danville Artists Society1995

Artist’s Statement 1:
I love the Iron Horse Trail, these paintings are based on that. This relates to “America’s New Backyard”
and transportation as it focuses on people enjoying the trail and nature. The first proposal features the
monarch butterfly, as it is one of the beautiful creatures you are likely to encounter while out on the
trail.
Artist’s Statement 2:
This proposal is similar to the first in that it features the Iron Horse Trail and people enjoying it. In this
proposal I included the western swallowtail butterfly, another creature often encountered on the trail.
People on the trail are biking, scootering and walking, different modes of transportation people use on
the trails.

Applicant: Jessica Eastburn
Artist Statement
As a weekly commuter to Stockton I gravitated toward the idea of highways and
automobiles as a source of inspiration for the imagery in my proposal. I am
interested in the history of the Lincoln Highway and its evolution into Dublin
Boulevard and I-580. This idea that earlier roads (stage coach routes, the
Lincoln Highway) have been remade into new roads was an interesting metaphor
to me of paths being blazed for future generations. The style in which the
imagery is painted varies from more realistic and illustrative to flat, comic inspired
in order to evoke that sense of history.

Artist Statement
“The New American Backyard with an emphasis on the history of travel through Dublin.” I
wracked my brain as to how I might illustrate this, and I thought of the journey so many Dublin
residents have made from all around the world to be here. Through 5 different aged maps that
zoom in on a highlighted Dublin, we see the different means of travel people could take to arrive
in our city, The New American Backyard.

Design 1) "Shamroc k Skies at night" This design is created to be a partner design to
the Dublin at Dusk box painted this year at Hacienda and Dublin Blvd, picture shown
with sample works. This design shows families at a neighborhood night out, looking to
the skies viewing star constellations and cloud formations in the forms of shamrocks
reminiscent of Van Gogh's starry night. This design created specifically for the City of
Dublin in celebration of the city's recognition of the importance of community and
family.
Design 2) "Colors of Transportation" is a partner box to another one of my design
painted in San Ramon earlier this Year next to the Iron Horse trail "Colors of Music'\
shown with my sample work. These designs are part of my, Neon Jungle collection
which uses vivid colors and symbolism to tell individual stories. In this design I use
blends of rich colors to catch your eye and inviting you in to take a closer look. Here
you discover the fine details of the design, a collage of images representing a variety of
transportation means, linking locals and visitors together at the local hub of Dublin.
Design 3) "welcome to Dublin" This design uses both realistic imagery and whimsical
design to spotlight the past and present. Both historic and modern transportation are
seen, entering Dublin through arches formed in the shape of Shamrock. An antique car
represents the early settlers discovering Dublin, representing the rich history that built
this city. The BART train, representing modern day Dublin, connecting residents to the
larger community throughout the Bay Area and bringing visitors to see all that Dublin
has to offer. In my design I include samples of the artistic and inviting nature of
Dublin's community. In Dublin visitors find many creative signs and artworks
welcoming them to the extended neighborhood of their city.

“History of Travel through Dublin.”
Artistic Statement: “THE WHEEL”
I decided to focus my proposal for the “History of Travel through Dublin”
utility box design on “the wheel” and place it in the time of when cars first
made their appearances here in Dublin.
The wheel is arguably one of the most important inventions in history. It
took a long time for the wheel to be invented and the first wheels were
created not for transportation but to serve as potter’s wheels. The ancient
Greeks eventually invented the wheelbarrow, a one wheeled, hand drawn
vehicle.
Most people recognize the vintage car as an historical image of
transportation. I added an old bicycle to highlight the fact that it was a
bicycle mechanic, Henry Ford, who invented the first car using advanced
bicycle technology.
To humanize the history of the wheel, I adding one person into the image: a
child playing a game with an old tire.
It was the wheel that led to the first bicycle that in turn led to the first car.
All three (tire game, bicycle and car) represent a common time period in
the history of travel through Dublin.
Dublin has dry, hot summers and is bordered by Mount Diablo and the
Ridge. I used the colors purple, burn sienna, yellow, and red against a
mountainous background.
The silhouettes provide a sense of bygone days.

UTILITY BOX ART – PORTFOLIO SUBMISSION
I am an Oakland based artist and designer interested in applying my
style to a utility box or two in Dublin, CA. I have been in the Bay Area
all my life and worked in Dublin when the Shaklee building opened
about 18 years ago. Having that new Bart station right across the
highway from work and getting to know the area while it blossomed
was a treat.
I have a variety of experience creating art for utility boxes. Florescent
Meter & Outlet Box as well as the Salt n Pepper mural were created
for The KONO Neighborhood Association in Oakland using stencils
and spray paint. I have also completed many vinyl wrapped utility
boxes including Buttons & Zippers shown here for San Leandro.
The designs I am submitting for Dublin are based on my Pop Dot
series and customized to fit the backyard and transportation
themes. Each design would be further customized to fit the box
selected and I am open to your selection of placement.
The PopDot series explores themes of culture, environment, and
influences of our designed world. I work with bold familiar icons in
saturated colors to draw viewer’s attention. The designs are placed
on a background of exaggerated dots bridging art and design
processes of the past with technology of now. Recontextualizing
objects in this way allows for the addition of subtle messages that I
hope inspire thought, though I am just as pleased if the work simply
invites a smile. I believe strongly in accessibility of art for all in both
placement of the work and content.
Additional samples of my work can be seen at:
