Kirkland's Sculptures

Kirkland is filled with beautiful public art
Most of the pieces below are in several blocks of downtown Kirkland


Betty Lou - based on citizen of Kirkland



I love the exuberance expressed in this sculpture. 
The children are running down the hill to the water. 

Last Gift


Nesting - I think this is my favorite




Every once in a while someone puts soap in this downtown fountain


Carousel - the expressions on the faces of the father, 
mother & daughter are intriguing

Cow and Coyote
These two are decorated for every special occasion

Reverb - did it reverb too much & that's why it was tied down?

This is another favorite. The sculpture is embedded in a seating area bordering Lake Washington (See picture on left. It's on the right edge of the picture.) Picture an adult sitting on the ledge - seat, hand & feet prints. Then there's a child with seat & hand prints - the child's legs aren't long enough to have footprints on the lower ledge.
First Romance


Winter (there's a Spring sculpture in the same park)
