Saturday Sculpture


I am not sure who the artist is but I love this silver bird sitting proudly on this metal cactus at the Wilford Gallery on Canyon Road. I just wanted to bring a little sparkle to your day.

    Isn't he shiny and pretty! I love that type of wind sculpture I see in the background. What are you doing up so late?

    You certainly do have some unique statues around your way Randy. This one makes me feel it is just so 'Santa Fe'.

    And I'm wondering what's beyond that fence in the background.

    Had to laugh; not to disparage the sculpture but it reminds me of old stovepipes. Hope it's not too hot for the shiny bird! Have a great week-end, Randy!

    Very cute bird!

    I rather like that cactus. It shouldn't "bite" you if you sit on it. And the bird is to die for. I'd buy that in a second!

    When could I imagine a silver bird could be so cute?!

    So creative! We have plenty of stove pipe and I would not have thought of making a cactus out of it!

    That is a pretty cool creation. Makes me want to go down to Home Depot and get a bunch of duct work and create my own. The bird really makes it. Think that would not be availible at HD though.

    That is definitely some bling! Wouldn't want to pass this on the side of the road while driving in the sunny desert. Hope you have a great weekend!

    I Love it!! And it looks like he/she fabricated the metal pieces themselves - great imagination and craftsmanship.

    A silver bird on a metal cactus. Fantastic! Great idea.

    I've just noticed 'The Weeping Camel' is among your favourite movies. I LOVED it! There are some really awesome movies from that part of the world (Middle East included).

    The whimsy is charming. Saguaro and bird seem perfect for the southwest...but wait? Do you have saguaros in Santa Fe?

    Now, do I like this or the dancing sheep best. Perhaps it's the folded bison.
