Yes, do not attempt to adjust your screen. That is a giant letter D with dogs painted on it. This summer I was asked by Citiparks of Pittsburgh to create a nifty design for an eight foot high giant D as part of their Storywalk celebration in Frick Park. After much consideration, it was obvious that this towering letter should be covered in floating orange, blue, purple, and pink dogs. Its for the kids! As a bonus, I also asked the 300+ kids who visited my station to draw a picture of their favorite dog to tack up on the large D. Their drawings were a hoot!

I especially loved the drawings done by a group of little Korean girls (not pictured) who pretty much corner the market when it comes to drawing anything cute.
