    This is getting a new paintjob on monday, so i'll post some updates and see if people like this more. it's around 42" tall. The original is a bronze in a famous public garden [or private?] in Charlotte, South Carolina. I should have taken some photos before i painted this. It was peeling and very blotchy and not at all attractive. I really like the yellow paint.

      I just got an urge to fire up the video and re-watch "Midnight In The Gardne of Good & Evil". Wonder why?

      i really like the yellow, and by the number of offers i received on it, so did a lot of others. i sold it for about ten times what i paid for it after painting it yellow.
