It was a perfect spring day for walkin’ in the country with my dad (Don)….and a special treat for my little dog, Molly.
With the nicer weather, a few additions have popped up in the rusty garden on Fritzy’s Corner. The solar collectors on the spider’s back cause the teal blue glass insulator eyes to glow at night.
“Fritzy was a good dog”
Inspired by Sports Illustrated’s Swimsuit Edition of painted-on swimsuits. Don’s latest woodcarving…she’s also a bank.
The person who picked this gift in the white elephant gift exchange said she just knew she wasn’t going to get to keep it. And she didn’t. If you know about white elephants, you know there is usually a fair amount of stealing from one another going on. And Don’s creations are always favorites as are his grandson’s – artistic talent runs in the family. Don’s granddaughter was lucky enough to be the third steal, so it’s now in her garden patiently waiting for spring!
The third picture shows a closer view of the springs on the legs which make the bird mobile.
More rusty flowers. Garden sculptures created by Don Shull.
More garden sculptures on the hillside, created by Don.
Don’s creative talents combined with many hours welding in his studio result in these washers coming to life as a sculpture in the garden. Her beautiful red hair was created with salvaged fine copper wire.
