- Picture: Too talented for trash cans: Artists at the StreetLife Gallery, the Belltown studio for homeless and very-low-income creative types, have spent months revamping their neighborhood’s supply of artsy trash receptacles. Trash cans painted by local artists have long been a hallmark in the neighborhood. Art coordinator Monica Lidman and StreetLife artist Pam Taylor pose by their street corner masterpieces. Each of the 12 artists were paid $300 for their work, and their undertaking was funded by a City of Seattle neighborhood grant and matching funds from local business. The StreetLife Gallery is part of the Real Change Homeless Empowerment Project.
