Do snowmen count as art? Some snow has fallen over the last couple of days but not as much as elsewhere and not nearly enough for us to get creative with, so my pictures are from previous years.
I loved the way this snowman with a flower (mahonia?) for a nose had a snowcat for company. His attitude makes me think he was declaiming poetry – something very worthy, although the cat seems unimpressed. Either that or he’s spotted an alien spacecraft approaching.
My final snowmen were making a gesture towards being socially responsible. While they had not mastered the art of fitting their masks correctly, I’ll concede it’s a challenge for the carrot-nosed.

Yes – a temporary installation. The carrot nosed masks are fun
The masked snowmen could front a public information campaign: ‘Don’t be a snowman – masks won’t count if your nose is out.’
So they could 🙂
Sculpture is art!
It’s fun too 🙃
Love the pictures ❤

I’m glad you agree!
They definitely count! I’ve not made one for years
Me neither, I’m sorry to say. The one I remember most fondly was started off on a local field and rolled home.
Now that sounds rather fabulous – maybe one of these days we will get to make them again

Thanks very much, Marsha. Just so you’re aware, Akismet had trapped this – one of the hazards of hosting.
I am not surprised. I found a couple of my all-time most frequent readers in SPAM yesterday. I was glad I did a walk through to let them out of jail! 🙂 I think Akismet has Omicron.
Lol, I see they are doing the silent protest, wearing the mask under the nose..😂. Couldn’t resist that one. Cool picture. ✍️😀✍️💙✍️
