Garden face




I think it's fun having faces in the garden in unexpected places.



I made this garden face out of some leftover grout from my mosaic garden stone, if you remember, here.




I brushed on some forest green paint to give him some depth.






He's hanging on the garden fence keeping watch over the garden.


Enjoy your day!

Really unique! How did you make him, did you have a mold? I love faces in the garden!

Oh, I love it! It looks like it could be placed in a water fountain having water running from its mouth.;)
It also reminds me of the "La Bocca della Verità" ("the Mouth of Truth") in Rome, featured in the movie "Roman Holiday".;))
Have a great midweek dear Donna,
xoxo

Donna, I love this old fellow. He looks like he must have a good soul, and I'll bet he has wonderful stories to share.

Great job!
