RoadsignUSA #2
Say Goodbye to Bill and Hello to Annise



Mayor Bill White came down and new mayor Annise Parker's image was unveiled on the coldest night in years in Houston, January 8, 2010.  Seven Roadsign supporters unceremoniously watched Claudia Franco reveal new mayor Annise, pulling off the veil using a home made clothes hanger wired to an aluminum swimming pool skimmer pole. That afternoon Claudia and another Urban Artist, Glenn Rollins, climbed the ladder in preparation for the evening unveiling and staple gunned the portrait of Annise Parker, over outgoing mayor Bill White.




Poster Sized Print

A 28" x 12" poster was given to Mari Omori for her support to the the RoadsignUSA project on Kickstarter.   Mayor Annise Parker's portrait is stitched to the top of the original group of four mayors.
