About the Project and Choice of Artist
In excavating the land, Indian remains were found. It is with respect for the Cahuilla
Indians, the Torres Martinez Band of Indians and the sanctity of the site that the
developers chose to remember and pay tribute to the Cahuillas. These remains will be
buried at this site.
Felicia's source of inspiration is the Indians. This is where she has built her reputation.
She has visited this area. Last year she participated in the La Quinta Arts Festival and
some of the committee members had an opportunity to see her work first hand.
For an appropriate depiction of figures and their dress every effort was made to find and
then send photos of the Indians to the artist. The likenesses and dress will be true to
character, yet simplified.
The developer liked Felicia's contemporized and simplified bronze sculptures where the
art, rather than the realistic depiction of people was represented.
Felicity is known for her fluidity of form and a wonderful range of patinas. Hence the
garments will be trimmed in a variety of patinas, creating artistic interest.
Water will be emanating from various parts of the sculpture, the various pots and perhaps
at the base of the sculpture. Some details are still being worked out.
Proposal for Public Art Sculpture Fountain at Point Happy
Title: "Family"
Dimensions: Over all height will be 8 feet high. The bronze sculpture will be
approximately 6 ` x 4' in diameter, cast in bronze. The sculpture will be mounded to a
pedestal of concrete, finished to match the bronze sculpture. This pedestal 2' in height
will be positioned in the fountain's pool 10' x 1 %z'. This pool or basin is part of the
overall fountain sculpture.
The finish on the poolibasin will be close in coloration with the buildings and walkways
of the project. The artists' patinas will be in harmony with the base and pool so the entire
project is integrated.
Total cost of the sculpture including lighting and lighting is projected to be
approximately $70,000.-$75,000.

ATTACHMENT B
•
My work reflects the spirit and richness of the Southwest, mystical
and timeless; my bronzes depict the historical image of Native American
women and children.
I work directly in clay by way of live models; my goal is to capture a
strong likeness along with my own creative vision of simplicity and
elegance. My focus is to create a feeling of sensuous curves, intense
emotions, clean lines, along with strong forms. I enjoy the contrast of the
representational and the abstract, the high polish and the applied patina.
My work represents an interesting and refreshing ap
proach to creative
work. My -art is impulsive and spontaneous, when finishing the image I
incorporate stones, beads, and feathers to my designs. I strive for a well
designed image full of graceful movement, soft curves, and the massive
presence that exists.
In regards to the technical aspect of my creations, I use the lost -
wax method. After the clay image is completed, rubber and plaster molds
are formed. A wax* reproduction is created by pouring hot wax into the
rubber mold; the wax reproduction is then cleaned and chased to remove
all imperfections, then cut in half, at which time each half is covered
with ceramic clays, hardened, and the wax impression- is then burned out.
Now that the ceramic clay ' is hardened and is empty, the molten bronze is
then poured into each half. Once cooled, the ceramic clay is hammered off,
and the bronze halves are welded together; the image is then chased,
patina is applied, and high polished as I desire.

Her name is Felicia. Only

Her art is like that, too.
Simple. Elegant.
The bronze work that Feli-

representational and abstract.
Highly polished bronze pro-
vides sharp contrast to pati-
nas that give a sense of tex-

professional art show that is
open to the public from 9 a.m.-6
p.m. today and 9 a.m.- 5 p.m. Sun-
day at the Quality Inn and Suites.
"I'd read about this show in a
western art magazine. I was
thrilled when I was accepted.
It's a pleasant . trip coming
here," said Felicia, who has a
studio in Aurora, Colo.
Arriving in North Platte a day
before setting up for . the art
show, she was able to attend the
Buffalo Bill Rodeo.
"I'd only been to one other
rodeo in my life. That was at
Cheyenne Frontier Days. This
one was better. Everyone was
friendly and it just seems to
have more character and feel-
ing," said Felicia, who is origi-
nally from New York.
That is where, as a youngster,
that she says she developed her
appreciation of art.
"My mother was artistic and
appreciative of the visual arts in
all forms, styles and mediums,"
says Felicia. She recounts how
her mother would check the pa-
pers every week for new shows
that were opening in the muse-
ums and galleries 6n the city.
"She'd take me, or drag me de-
pending upon my mood, to those
shows," Felicia recounts.
Felicia studied at the Art. Stu
dents League in New York City,
eventually going into commer-
cial art to support herself and
her family.
"That was like a real job while
I continued to do my fine arts
for myself," says Felicia.
In 1980, after moving to Col-
orado, Felicia began to do
sculpting, eventually began to
work in bronze.
"This is the medium I absolute-
ly love and that I think I'll proba-
bly stay with," says Felicia.
Just as she'll stay with the
name and the style. Simple and
elegant. 021
