Sculpture interpretations

We spent this afternoon at a nearby sculpture park. The weather was absolutely perfect for it, and we really enjoyed the time together.

Lily said this one was a wolf wearing a blanket.

Sculptures are very subjective things - beauty is in the eye of the beholder.


One of the Niki exhibits we saw at the Missouri Botanical Gardens this summer is now at the sculpture park. Lily definitely recognized it as her cat house.


Lily called this one "the creature".


You can step down into the eyes, nose and mouth of this one. Lily tried the nose and said that it was too hot. Then she tried the eyes and said that they were too cold. Then she stepped into the mouth and said it was just right. Too funny.


Lily said that this rendition of a molecular structure was a "caterpillar".


When Carl suggested that this one looked a little like a caterpillar, Lily laughed and said, "Daddy, you're so silly".
