What I love about sculpture is the wonderful forms it chooses. I would love to look like that and be an art form!

Very unusual statues. They look like they're zipped up in sleeping bags to keep warm in the snow!
ReplyDeleteThe closeup is the best pic; shows its true depth. The snow's a nice touch.
