This painting is currently on view at the Tenderloin Museum in San Francisco.

"Cadillac-Tenderloin" presents the original building facade of the Tenderloin Museum which resides at the historic site of the Cadillac Hotel, located at 398 Eddy Street in San Francisco. It is very exciting to hear that the Tenderloin Museum has received a grant to create a new neon sign to adorn its building as it once did many years ago, uniting the corner of Eddy and Larkin. And with these great news, I'm so thrilled I was invited to participate in this project by both the Tenderloin Museum and Neon Speaks to paint an oil on canvas of the museum's building facade and incorporating the new neon signs of Cadillac-Tenderloin.

This painting is my interpretation of these neon signs glowing at twilight, and placed individually at opposite sides of the canvas, and accompanied by the building viewed from an angle intersecting Eddy and Larkin Streets. The neon signs are painted with the original colors of Neon Red and Argon Blue. The Tenderloin Museum and Neon Speaks' project is intended to build this neon sign that will be seen as a traditional signage at its original placement, and in the hopes of preserving this fascinating site, and with great excitement to light up the streets again.

"Cadillac-Tenderloin" will accompany the Tenderloin Museum's 6th Anniversary Gala on September 9th at the Phoenix Hotel in San Francisco. It is currently on view at the Tenderloin Museum, September 2021.
