Self-Made Man
February 21, 2005
Statue of a man sitting on a small barn with a hammer in his hands.
I saw this fellow in a park on the Brazos River in Waco. A plaque between his feet says "Self Made Man" / Joe Barrington / Waco Outdoor Sculpture Exhibition 2004.

Is that a real person under that? We have living sculptures in the French Quarter. You have to look very hard sometimes to see if they're alive. With a photo, it's impossible.

Hi Christy! smile

He's not real, Rob. Or if he is, he did one heck of a job staying still. I got right up in his face! That's a real neat idea, though. I'd like to see one of those living sculptures in the French Quarter. smile

Next time I'm down there, I'll photograph one. They can fool you.
