Wayne Thiebaud - Heart Cakes to Bowties

Renowned artist Wayne Thiebaud takes you on a journey of how he became the artist that he is today. Wanting to paint simple objects that he had never seen painted before, he began painting items such as cakes and pies, dresses, and shoes. He provided Sacramento with its first public work of art by painting an abstract montage that covers the Sacramento Municipal Utilities District (SMUD) offices.
