As promised here is a glimpse of the Sculpture Garden that we had the good fortune to pay a visit to.
Bruno is a Belgian expat with a talent at making sculptures that are a bit on the funny side. And just like his sculptures he too has an unusual sense of humour. Most of his sculptures are made out of Terra cotta along with some day-to-day accessories.
The fun part of it is exploring through his rather overgrown garden. There you get to meet various creatures and people in every nook and cranny, some hidden away among the bushes, some having a bath in the ponds and puddles and some up in the trees.

This one is a bit creepy... it's located such that it catches you off guard
The mouse man....take a closer look (below picture)
How many mice can you count?

If you follow the sound of the music, it will lead you to this man

We started off the morning visiting this place, so needless to say the whole day was invigorating!

That looks a very interesting place. I quite like the Mouse man and the bird man. I could count only 12 mice.
The photo only gives away 12 mice I guess, but the other side of his face (which's not in the photo) also held some more.
There was a Kandyan dancer as well (minus the heavy costumes) but my photo didn't quite come out well, so didn't post that here.
Oh wait a minute, I counted again and in the head close up alone there are 16! And the big one has 2more, so it should be 18. Do I get a prize...?
The artist has teasingly left tail or two without revealing details probably to let the viewers to imagine...and I didn't count those..!
heheh
