Artist proposes Carroll Street Bridge painting
Local artist Bill Cochran asked the Carroll Creek Commission to fund a $70,000 project to transform the Carroll Street Bridge into aged stone with ivy and hidden animal motifs. Anamorphic paintings would appear lifelike from specific angles, including a piece viewable only from the Delaplaine Visual Arts Center. Paint would be Germany sourced. The plan aims to boost downtown tourism and tie the Delapline center to the creek project, while officials seek a cohesive development schedule.
