Dragon Sighting at Pittsboro Park

Hide your children; a dragon has been seen lounging around Mary Hayes Barber Holmes Park.  

Artist Forrest Greenslade led the project with assistance from fellow artist/ stonemason Joe Kenlan and myself. Greenslade and crew volunteered our time for the project. 

Glassblower Jonathan Davis created the eyes.  

Forrest has a post on his blog detailing the construction process.  

It's been a fun project; we'll see how it holds up to the weather and its use in a public setting.  I could see an expansion of the project at some point in the future.
