A happy sun shines above beach and ocean on this unique bench, where anyone might sit and relax.
Liberty Station is a wonderful place to spend the day in Point Loma. Its beautiful promenade contains many small museums, art studios and cultural attractions. When you walk around the grounds of this brilliantly converted Naval Training Center, you’ll notice a number of artistic benches placed around the old barracks, military buildings and plazas. I recently took photos of many benches. Just for fun!

These are great fun. What a good idea to have these artistic benches on the promenade like that. So bright and colourful!
What fun! There is a store in Seattle that sells furniture painted this comfortably. i always thought it would be so much fun to have a dining room table, chairs, dressers, desks, etc. painted this wildly. As you can tell, I love color!!!!

Aren’t these great fun! Richard gets to more places in San Diego than I do, so wanted to share this. I’d love furniture in my house painted this wildly!
Please tell me who made the benches? I only saw one artist who painted two benches name in your article. We want to have some benches built and artists with community will paint. Thanks! Compassionate Arts in Action

It would be fun to have a special room in one’s house that is just wild and crazy, with no care in the world of what others might think!

We have plenty of sunshine here in So. FL, but I don’t see such great stuff. Maybe I’m looking in the wrong places???

I’m afraid I don’t know who painted them! Perhaps call Liberty Station–they might know!
