Cadillac Ranch in Amarillo, Texas, features a series of old Cadillacs buried nose-down in the dirt. The cars are painted with neon colors and can be found along Route 66.

Highsmith, C. M., photographer. (2013) Robert Griffin is no spray-painting vandal. Like thousands of other visitors to the "Cadillac Ranch" along Old U.S. Route 66 outside Amarillo, Texas, he is encouraged to bring a along a spray can to add a touch or two to the unusual public art installation. Thus the overall look remains the same over time, but the details change daily. Amarillo Texas United States, 2013. -02-04.
