Kingman, Kansas - Yard Artist Glenn Stark

Glenn Stark, now in his 90s, created a humorous assemblage of wood carved and concrete-sculpted figures all over his yard. The statues are mostly painted, and of varying sizes and subjects -- fish dangle from a tree, there's a Gryphon, a woman on horseback (Calamity Jane), an angel playing a harp, a dinosaur, Indians, totem poles, and more. A "Hagar the Horrible" concrete Viking holds the Stark mailbox.

Glenn has plenty of his creations indoors, so call ahead for an appointment and he may show you his stuff. [Roadsideamerica.com Team, 01/17/2007]
