House of Small Statues, Part Last

You can spend an entire afternoon discovering all the tiny figures and colorful additions in this yard. One can only imagine what the inside of the house looks like if the outside is this wonderful. Would that we all had the time and inclination to create this much artwork everywhere. Sculpture Park be damned, THIS is public art!
Mixed media of stone, wood, brick, tile, concrete, sparkplugs, tools and more; Devil's bursting through windows, cats arched in horror, little workmen tromping through the snow, colored cogs rising like bubbles of thought along the walls... even the garage roof support (not pictured) is a detailed hand with Wonderful use of color and texture throughout, and hilarious faces wherever you look. Fantastic worthy art by any account.

The House of Small Statues

There's a house with a yard full of figurines hiding on a crooked street in Madrona, very near a pocket park inhabited by a multitude of plum trees. Little stone men, cats, crocodiles, baseball players and devils. Wood, stone, brick and what appear to be colored machine cogs of some sort. It's a lovely hidden spot populated by protector spirits, all hand-made. This one is a favorite-- the river-stone doorway guardian, carefully constructed, a dependable sentinal. The house and garage are also decorated, and I'll be posting more images here soon.
