In 1963, San Francisco artist Butch
Kardum began combining intense
blues and greens on the exterior of his
Italianate-style Victorian House. His
house was criticized by some, but other
neighbors began to copy the bright
colors on their own houses. Kardum
became a color designer, and he and
other artists / colorists such as Tony
Cataletich, Bob Buckner, and Jazon
Wonders began to transform dozens of
gray houses into Painted Ladies. By
the 1970s, the colorist movement, as it
was called, had changed entire streets
and neighborhoods. This process
continues to this day. Wikipedia
