Cadillac Ranch is found in the remote high plains of the Texas Panhandle, west of Amarillo along Interstate 40. It is comprised of ten Cadillacs that have been half-buried in the dirt, with their tail-finned back ends standing nearly vertical. Built in this area by an art group from San Francisco known as Ant Farm, the installation has stood over the plains since 1974. It can be accessed by a side road that parallels the interstate where a gate in the fence allows the public access to the surrounding lands. The public is encouraged to bring their own spray paint and add their own touch to the installation. The Wild Images Team took this close-up image to display the thick textured surfaces that are brightly colored from many decades of paint layers. The picture shows what is left of one of the tires, its side wall has long since decayed away. Also seen in the background are the many cans and caps from previous spray painting visitors. Blog posts from state of Texas include the art created by the line of sunken monuments at Cadillac Ranch and the textures created by thick layers of paint covering the monuments at Cadillac Ranch. A blog post from nearby state of Missouri includes the Route 66 sign of The Uranus Fudge Factory. The Wild Images Team has captured many photos throughout the somewhat nearby city of Chicago, including the blue skyscrapers of The Grant and One Museum Park, which is available for sale in our store. Blog posts from Chicago have documented the view of the Wabash Avenue elevated train, the ornate art deco brown buildings of old town Chicago, the interesting curious foxes of the small green space, when The Wild Images Team Coordinator Christina sat at the stone desk, the hidden colorful fire escape framed by trees, the day The Wild Images Team finally found the heart of Chicago, the moment when giant headless zombies took over Grant Park, and at the head of the Navy Pier where sits the bronze sculpture Captain On The Helm. Blog posts from the somewhat nearby state of Minnesota include the moment that The Wild Images Team Coordinator Christina becomes the Jolly Green Giant, the moment that The Wild Images Team Coordinator Christina becomes the Little Green Sprout, and a scene of The Wild Images Team Coordinator Christina underneath a life size Jolly Green Giant.
