Artists: Carol Husband

Sponsor: Community Action Partnership of Riverside

Carol Husband was born in Ohio and attended college in Wisconsin. Carol, the mother of two children, gives private art lessons for K-12 and also has a mural and faux finishing business.

She is the art program teacher at Orange Elementary in Corona and currently president of their PTA. She creates oversized props for school programs, loves to paint large murals, and conquers new art mediums in bold ways.

Carol describes her involvement with the Giant Orange this way: “There I was, having an ordinary day, balancing many interests of sorts.  Then, out of the blue a Giant Orange falls from nowhere and smashes right in the middle of my life.

Only in California can this happen, I thought.  When I worked at Disney World everything had that large wow factor and now the Orange.  The children to whom I teach art, along with my family, asked me what I was going to do with such a gigantic orange. I told them, first I must add a touch of creative juice to it, and do so with care. Then I’ll celebrate it with family and friends.  Lastly, I’ll send the orange on its way out to the world for all to enjoy. “
