Some time ago on Arty Fartying Around, I featured a delightful piece of street art that had appeared in Port Elizabeth. A group of trees had been felled near the golf driving range in Walmer, and the logs left lying around.
Someone with a brilliant eye and lateral thinking ability spotted the potential for one to become a reclining woman, and painted a white dotty bikini on her. She brought a smile to many of us as we spotted her lying around on the grass when we drove past, but her lonely state obviously bothered someone. Because when I drove past recently, I saw that a boyfriend in swimming trunks had been added, standing behind her, and to celebrate, she was wearing a new brightly coloured bikini.
Well it appears the pair wasted no time in starting a family, because when I went past last week, a child in a pink bikini and a dog had appeared! The dog is particularly delightful, sporting a set of high heeled shoes!
(Funnily enough, we bought a painting from a well known local artist a while ago, featuring a dog with skinny legs, wearing high heeled shoes………mmmmmmmmm…… I must remember to ask her if there’s a connection here?)

That’s very clever!! The dog is just too cute. Hopefully they’ll be left there now.

Wonderful; art in progress – I wonder if it will stop there.

If you drive out to Lake Farm there is another family there. Apparently it is one of the teachers / carers that creates them. That family has a beautiful view over the lake. I saw them at the Lake Farm run this weekend and then the girl who did them was asked to come forward at the Prize Giving.

How cute! Love that the “art” evolved over time.
