Thanks so much for your positive reaction to my photosofArt in the Garden.
I love to wander in nature and places of interest. Gardens are special places, and The Savill Garden, Windsor Great Park (Crown Estates), is one of my favourites.
Every year there is an exhibition of art located throughout the grounds. I try to go as often as I can to take photos.
I didn’t have space in my initial post for all the photos of exhibits I took, so here are a few more. I hope you enjoy them too. The art is by artists from the Surrey Sculpture Society. I’ve named each sculptor and their art where possible.

Thanks for your visit and do come again. If you are interested in my other ‘jollies,’ to gardens, villages, castles, cathedrals, and other places of interest, please visit my ARCHIVES for posts and photos.
It is and I have to wait until I go back to see the name of the artist. The booklet is unclear as not all pieces have been photographed so a name and a number does not help me ID it.
We have green fingers and love our countryside. But, I see so many beautiful locations in South Africa too. I have family living out there as you know. Have a fab weekend. xx Hope Michael is on the mend. xx
These are wonderful, Jane. I love to see how other people express themselves and these sculptures show such an incredible amount of skill. Thanks for sharing!
I agree, Amy. There are some pieces that leave me puzzled, but I find I like them. Every year we go and visit to see the artwork, as well as our regular walks there. Such a wide range of ideas and exhibits. So much variety to enjoy. So clever too. Last year we met one of the sculptors, a lady, and she was in tears as she spoke with us, so thrilled we liked her work. As an author, I get her completely. Such an emotional experience putting yourself ‘out’ there. I hope you like the previous Art in the Garden post too. I will add more in time. Jane x
I am chuffed they do. If you want to see various other jollies, scroll down on the right of my site to archives and there are plenty of such photos and locations to see. Not just gardens! I hope I cheer you up. I do it to cheer myself up when all around us is goign to pot. Have a fab weekend. xx
Love these photos. The gymnast sculpture is amazing!

South Africa is quite different. Much more rough, tough, and wild.
