I finally found the perfect spot for my totem. I loved it inside the Mango Studio, but I need the space for the Studio Tour.
Mr R set it in the ground right outside the window...
so that I can enjoy it both inside and out.
Susan installed her totem outside too...the rooster dancing in the trees...
and standing tall.
I'm anxious to see all the Totems completed and will share that with you too.
I don't know what to squeal about first! Love the totems (big time!) and that mosaic alley art just has my heart pounding!!! What a wonderful neighborhood you live in! If someone starting making public art in their yards here, someone would report them to the city and the city would make them take it down. Not even kidding, which is why I'm considering moving in the future. You have me thinking that I need a neighborhood like yours :-) Such Happiness!

I love those totems. Now you got me to thinking that I need a totem pole out there. I would have to look around in my yard and see what I could come up with. Very nice totems.

Those totems are wonderful! I think I'd like a neighborhood like yours too.

Okay, can we talk? Are you seriously having ANOTHER tour without me? For heaven's sake, I can bring cupcakes!!
I love that window photo. You rock. I am not a spiritual or religious person, but if I were at Chez Mango, I would have quite an encounter with myself. So beautiful and peaceful and IN-SPIRE-ing.

I so love that totem........
When I saw it there, by the fish on the wall, I thought "OF COURSE, fish!! Birds, balls, oblongs, little butterflies and flowers, fish, EVRYTHING!!!!!"
:-)
I know there are hand-building classes around here. I need to find one............
