Sculpture Art and creative art. "Coyotes Passing Through" by Carl Skelton, Digital post-processing by Snapseed to emulate Grunge look

Thanks for all of the excellent entries this week.

Cuypers1807 - Great background story about "Stubby" it reminds me of the more recent stories of the Ukrainian bomb sniffing dog.

dilorenzo1954 - That's quite the art collection on the wall! I need to print and hang more of my images.

Ltdave - It's always interesting to see artists imitating other art.

RDWP - Your photo isn't much different than the one I took when I was there.

OldCrow - An excellent and intricate art piece, and appropriate to the very Memorial Day.

TerryPink - Interesting piece. Looks like they're passing through each other.

I have to give this one to OldCrow for his excellent image of his scroll wood art. Honorable Mention to Ltdave for capturing art and an artist in one image.


Full disclosure. My judging may be colored by Memorial Day and memories of a good friend who lost his life in Vietnam. His aircraft was shot down by a Russian SAM almost 50 years ago.
