Another ice sculpture from a local coffee shop near my wifes work.
These are done by local art students not professionals. Some are
plain and simple yet others are very nice. I called this one Cold
& Lonely Woman for obvious reasons. HAHAHA! What do you think?

These students sure are talented. It's too bad everything's going to melt soon, as you've mentioned. After viewing all of your lovely photos, my favourite is 'still' the abstract one.:)

Thanks. I love this one as well as your first abstract one. It's hard to pick a favourite between them.

Yeah it can be costly at times.
A lot of artists buy huge blocks of ice for this purpose.

I have not seen it yet since it is in my e-mail, I will just say that it sounds like a really fun community. Very artistic. After I post this response, I will go comment on your picture as well. The title sounds appropro, however.

This one piece was sitting a ways from all other pieces of art there. So that's one reason I named it such. HAHAHAHA!!

his one is actually fairly small.
Maybe about 2 feet tall only, but it is awesome.

What great entertainment, to view these ice sculptures. I have always wanted to see one of these displays. I appreciate your sharing the pictures of some of them. You picked a good name for this one.

In St Paul they have the Winter Carnival each year in January. They have a huge ice carving and snow sculpture display in a local park. But it's always too cold for me to walk around checking them out so I look for the local artists work such as this one.

I wonder if the students did this out of joy or if it was an assisment? I love all your photos thanks for sharing.

I would guess joy or boredom. The school is too far away for it to have been an assignment. They do the same thing on campus but in a larger and more artistic manner so this was a pleasure was all.

That is pretty cool! We don't have stuff like that around here. I like the fact that the students and other blooming artists take the time to make these and exhibit them!

I may saunter over to the college this week to see if there are any other sculptures there. I've seen them on campus before and they were
a lot more artistic there. Thanks.
