The Great Blue Heron by Ted Goodden
I don't usually like public art, most of the time it is too pretentious for me or absolutely head scratching, "huh? I don't get it!", but this one I like! The Tricar Group commissioned this piece for its new downtown apartment building. Every day I walk by it on my way to work.

Isn't it awesome? Love the stained glass piece I am looking forward to seeing the way the patterns will fall during the different seasons.
ReplyDeleteI have to agree with you most public art is more like litter than something to enjoy but this piece is delightful.....how creative and I do like that a local artist was used too.
ReplyDeletethanks for stopping by my blog and offer your positive comments.....I hope to finish piecing the top today!
I think we have common blocks on a quilt top by Tonya :0).
Also my Mom was from London, Ontario before she left to serve in WWII as an RN for the Royal Canadian Service......she now rest in Ottawa in the National Military Cemetery.
Have a blessed 2010 and Happy Sewing
