Running to the store to get more butter for Thanksgiving dinner, I caught this piece of art carved out of a stump.
I think there is a local artist, because I found a ton of bears carved out of trees. I’ll share more photos soon. o

The more butter the better is my motto! Happy Thanksgiving to you all!
Whoa, that’s totally awesome. Just free art? Or does it look like it was commissioned? Either way I love it.
Bossy sees your Thanksgiving butter and raises you some Crisco.
In San Francisco, there’s a small but beautiful park tucked in a little corner on Cayuga Street. It’s Cayuga Park and there are wood sculptures created by the gardener, Demi Braceros. He’s retired now but his carvings and topiary are still there. He would sculpt the fallen trees that have been blown down or had to be cut down for safety. His gardening skills made it into a refreshing oasis. He is a true artist. The park is small but it’s filled with all the beautiful plants he’s cared for and the wooden sculptures. Here’s a link to some of the photographs of his artwork

Hope your arteries are holding up okay.
We have a local guy that does this too. But somehow the tree art looks much prettier with your scenic backdrop than the shopping Mall in Pittsburgh.
I am in love with this photo and it would be great if you would make it available in your Etsy shop!
