Some pretty bad "art"

These two, uh, creations are outside of some weird business outside of Cottonwood, Arizona. The first is a rather poor representation of Kokopelli. You can read more about him by Googling him.

The second is alleged to be a "good luck" statue from some small island south of South Korea.

The most amusing thing about these statues is that they are parked on land directly across from a huge new Roman Catholic church. The bug-eyed one and a twin companion both stare at the church all day.

The creators may have a bit of a screw loose but at least they have a sense of humor!

  2. yeah, i see what you mean...wasn't there any other place in the city to build a church? perhaps the congregation just isn't that skeered of what kolopelli and a good luck charm could do??
    the photos are both pretty cool and your story is not only interesting but kind of funny, too!

  3. EG - Good point!

    S - Actually the church was built first and it's outside the town in an open area. I blogged about it and snapped a photo back awhile (September 22, 2009).
