Modern Art

Some of you may be familiar with the phenomenon of buying old furniture or "antiques" and putting one in your front yard and turning it into a flower bed. The most popular is of course an old bed to make a flower bed out of. Then there is modern art which often turns familiar shapes or objects into something new or unexpected. Now, most of you know I'm not the hugest fan of modern art or old furniture in your yard, but I think this piece above really has something going for it. As you look at the next two photos you'll notice the great use of form, the careful distortion of the front end, the touch of rust, the beautifully manicured vines, the open door inviting you enter in and experience the jungle in a truck...a work of art!!!
