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.

Lincoln's Big Head

There's something about being head of state that gets you recognized in crowds. Being head of the household, not so much, but you do get respect. Being just another big head on the street, however, probably causes car accidents. Regardless, this is one of the better bits of yard art around the city. It looks like Abraham Lincoln, although it could be someone's granddad, an early Seattle settler perhaps. He must have been a fellow of some stature to merit such an incarnation.

House of Small Statues, Part Four

Devil on the rooftop, kicking up snow. Hammer in hand, and wings all aglow. Sparks from his head, leaping to flight. Stealing through souls in the perilous night.

House of Small Statues, Part Three

The Tileman, waving to his compadres and greeting all guests. And.. is that cake in his hand? He fits right in to his surroundings, as if the space had been waiting for his presence. How wonderful to have all these little people populating your tiny square of the city forest.

House of Small Statues, Part Two

A man of mortar and brick, and another denizen of the House of Small Statues. Looks like he'll survive the next earthquake, never notice it, just continue to guard his corner of the yard. His tile cap bill is a nice touch. Is he actually the gardener?
