On Friday Asuncion Aranda in Seville wrote: Please COME BACK from "Lilliput"...I miss your "talkings"about that green or YELLOW...
And I found this wonderful YELLOW duck sculpture of Florentijn Hofman of Rotterdam!
I ran to check on my little YELLOW duck...still there sitting on the tub, waiting patiently for me to remember to paint him.
Florentijn's duck or Canard de Bain, has a much bigger pool of water to swim in - the Loire River!
I love the scale of this ducky -
26 x 20 x 32 meters!
I would like to invite Florentijn's duck to tea...
But I'm not sure he likes cupcakes..?
Florentijn Hofman says of her duck:
A yellow spot on the horizon slowly approaches the coast.
People have gathered and watch in amazement as a giant yellow Rubber Duck approaches.
The spectators are greeted by the duck, which slowly nods its head.
The Rubber Duck knows no frontiers, it doesn't discriminate between people or have a political connotation.
The friendly, floating Rubber Duck has healing properties: it can relieve mondial tensions as well as define them. The rubber duck is soft, friendly and suitable for all ages!
I completely agree!
Over the weekend I ate way too many Pierre Herme Collection desserts...Hmmmm
And I'm feeling a bit like the "Stuck Pig" Florentijn created for the Museum van Nagsael. Please visit the other terrific sculptures at Florentijn's site!
And if you want a YELLOW duck of your own, please visit Amazon! 0 Comments:
