Adapted posthumously from the circa 1950s gouache on board created for the 1959 book, Happy Birthday To You!
Ted dedicated Happy Birthday to You! to “my good friends, The Children of San Diego County.” The book opens with curvy hilltop structures floating against bright horizons, then hovering over swaths of ocean blue in the afternoon, and finally popping out of black skies toward evening. Over the course of a single day, the images have visibly transported the reader along the California coastline. Fifty years after the paintings for this book were created, they still have a vibrancy and transparent glow, attributable to the fact that they have been kept in dark storage and rarely taken out for public viewing.
