Friday Face Off

 Hi everyone. Happy Friday to you. I hope you've had a wonderful week.

Today for Nicole's Friday Face Off I am back with some more sculpture photos I took last week at TurnPark Art Space in West Stockbridge, Massachusetts. We saw lots of art and natural spaces on our trip.  I think my husband was a little upset I was going away at first. Not because I was going, but because he wanted to go away. And of course he'd miss me. (smile)

When I got home, and he heard what we had done, he said quite emphatically, "Nope, that wasn't my kind of trip." I would never have been able to do what I had done if he and I had travelled together. 

Here's some more faces for you today, starting with Don Quixote.

 





And after literature, let's  meet some scientists.





You might recognize Einstein. The other face is a Danish physicist Niels Bohr who discovered a lot about the atom.

I'm not sure the name  or who was the artist  created of this next piece as it wasn't marked (or at least I couldn't find any info), but my first thought went to the painting called the Kiss by Gustav Klimt.




And finally, how about these interesting faces.




I am also linking up to Gillena's Friday Lunch Break.

Have a great start to your weekend everyone. And thanks for visiting my blog.

I so know what you mean! When Ingo is with me it´s always a hurry - other HE wants to investigate something, of course... ;-)

Haha, at first I thought that figure is giving me "that finger"!

I love them all, yes, that certainly is Einstein.
The kiss is a bit weird, as one looks away.
Great ones, anyways, hugs!

These are really amazing, I thought at first Don Quixote was giving us the finger but I see that he is not lol. I also love the one with the big square bucket-looking mouth and the one of the faces that looks like the Kiss. Have a lovely weekend. Happy Friday Face-off Elle/EOTC xx

I LOVE Don Quixote. A very good likeness. The flowers remind me of windmills, too. I immediately recognized Niels Bohr because I studied him in physics. Great face and sculpture. I agree that sculpture does remind me of The Kiss. Love those blue eyes. You found some spectacular beauties this week, Erika.

Oh my gosh, so funny about your hubby. Mine has his quirks but I must say he lets me drag him along to whatever and seems to enjoy it. I'm the idea person and he's the executer so maybe that's why. I love those scientists, also too funny! xoxo

These are wonderful! I love seeing sculptures in public spaces, and gardens seem like a good space for them.

lol, love those smokint men. I have a similar pipe that my father owned, but not smoked in. But mine is much longer. And quite beautiful.

I am glad to see that you are quite willing to travel independently from your husband. Some couples seem joined at the hip, and I always feel that must suffocate a relationship somewhat. As you point out, there are things that you like to do, and different things that he likes to do, and it's not always possible on the same trip. I think independent travel is a great thing!
