Looks Good To Me

Decorative But Useful

This is one of those metal boxes, usually painted battleship grey or institutional green, that house traffic light controls (I think). It was painted by a popular and prolific local artist, Ben Mann. Not only is it cheerful, but it provides directional guidance to the tourists who flock to Fairhaven year-round. One of the arrows points to the shoe store just visible on the left; another arrow shows the way to the off-leash dog park, and ... I'll let you figure out the rest yourself.

You can see the other side of the box here.

Here's Ben giving a tour of a beautiful timber frame house full of his paintings, and this is a time-lapse video of him completing a painting.

Thanks are due once more to my blip-finder, C.
