Home Savings was used often as a prime example of a good (and large) public art program. About the same time, Joan Irvine Smith opened a museum devoted to California Plein Air painting. I didn't know much about the movement before these two things happened and suddenly, my life was filled with more knowledge than I had ever desired on the subject.
I did get to go to Millard Sheet's house, Barking Rocks, in Gualala. Breathtaking house with the even more breathtaking view.
