Florence Avenue sculptures, Sebastopol 🎨

Highlight (Segment) • Structure

Every garden in Florence Avenue has one or more quirky sculpture. They are the creations of urban folk artists Patrick Amiot and Brigitte Laurent—he sculpts them out of scrap metal and found objects and she paints them. The couple live on Florence Avenue, you can tell which house is theirs—multiple sculptures in their front garden and their VW Golf is decorated with painted daisies. Everything they create is from recycled materials, an environmentally sustainable practice which fits perfectly with the ethos of Northern California. patrickamiot.com/index.html
