Play Ball


Monday I stumbled across this quirky sculpture of a Toronto Blue Jay outside of a gallery in Yorkville. Seems fitting to post it on the 1st day of the World Series. The artist is Patrick Amiot, originally from Montreal but now living in California where he creates his pieces entirely from scrap (old tanks, clocks, etc,) and then his wife Brigitte Laurent paints them.

I like this guy!
Cool it's made with recycled material!!! And it's lovely that he shares with his wife the same passion for art!
(Sorry for the delays, I was out of country. Thanks for all your kind comments!)
