I’d love to have one in my garden.
I love their expressions – the artist had fun making them, I’m sure!
That is such a cute owl. I love owls. I’d love some yard art but I’m looking for a lovely large Angel reading a book, maybe St. Francis holding out a bird feeder and a good sized Buddha. I think that would about cover it all unless I found a funny gnome to add to the group. :))
Those all sound wonderful! I love that you might throw in a funny gnome with the more classic pieces! 🙂
I think I’m a little twisted and just hide it well. 😉
Ha ha awesome! 🙂
These are cute owls! I try not to have too much statuary in my garden as my husband is lethal with the mower and things go flying!
LOL that would be a deterrent, for sure!
😉
This is really cute. I love welded pieces even if most are out of my garden art budget. 🙂
Oh yes, I’ve seen some lovely ones as well…but you’re right, they tend to be quite costly.
I love them! Wish I could find one for sale – my friend is BIG into owls and I’d love to get her one for her garden. 🙂
Aren’t they so sweet? I’d like to find out who the artist is; I may have to email the garden and find out. He or she really did a lovely job.
Cute!!😺
Yes they are very cute
They do make you smile.
Yes – you can’t help it when you spot them! 🙂
As far as Garden chockskis, less is best maybe. I did just meet up Kathryn from WP The Lonely Dogs. at a ceramics studio in Red Deer. I painted a garden Mushroom and Kathryne a Snail. I have to drive back there to pick it up because it get’s fired in an oven and then glazed. I hope it tunes out ok.
That’s very cool! I love ceramic art. You’ve probably gone to pick it up by now (I’m painfully late with my replies!) – how did it come out?
You’re not late cuz I haven’t been to Red Deer yet. Company over the long weekend and today is my first day off work since then. I’m planning to toddle my way there today 😀 and BTW, oh the spelling ???? I hope it ‘turns’ out ok…LOL and I’m entirely uncertain it’s ‘Chockskis’, I hope you know what I meant, HA
I love this owl. My mom was crazy over owls so whenever I see one it reminds me od mom.

That’s so sweet!
Cute little guy!
I love owls. What charming stone sculptures.
They are really well done, aren’t they?
They are indeed.
I love the owls!
Cute. I don’t have much in my garden. Most everything I have put in the garden has ended up broken.
