I really enjoy making discoveries of new artwork. Whether the piece is public art that I have passed a million times and not paid much attention to or some hidden and obscure creation that's not on display, the hunt and Eureka moment of discovery make it worthwhile. If I have never seen it before, such as many of the large handpainted murals that I have run across, it's like a piece of gold found in a creek bed. This sculpture, metal and other materials, is roughly 6-7 feet tall. There were two of them, almost identical, and both are standing in a side yard of what must surely be the artist's home and studio. I couldn't resist grabbing a few shots.

Omigod, Frank! You lost her head!
ReplyDeleteStill, an interesting sculpture!
That's kind of disturbing...
ReplyDeleteIs she into Heavy Metal Music?
ReplyDeleteI love it! It's fun and full of life. Not that I'd put it in the front garden I don't have mind you, but it makes me smile!
