Buddha in the Tire

In the home garden I once had, I created yard art with items "rescued," most of the time, by local teen friends from the Highway Dept across the street.
Buddha in the Tire came about as what else was I going to do with that huge thing I was given one afternoon. I needed a shelter for the garden Buddha. Needed to re-purpose and save a gift from a young friend. Needed to show the teens anything can become art and recycled, especially in outdoor art.
When I left the house I brought Buddha with me. Could not bring the tire. Below is where Buddha now rests. Not quite as unusual as before but such a natural place for Him, still on the slate stone, still outside in the air and elements, but poor guy - He needs rescuing, again. from the morning glories ;-) (yes, they were removed and restrung another place once this photo was taken....)
I miss doing yard art. Still collecting rocks and smaller items to *do* something with but miss the larger picture - so to speak ;-)

Here is where He sits now - Yes, He IS in there folks! Got His own shady grove to sit in after all these years. Now we loveingly call Him Buddha in the Bush...
