Ever since I can remember, I have always been enthralled by the circus and clowns and such. This picture directly below is oil on canvas and is titled
Carnival -- Fun House at the Fair, 1962 by Carlo Nisita(1895-1990). It reminds me of what the circus is all about. It's about imagination and excitement; The thrill of seeing fire blowing, juggling clowns or tigers being tamed, elephants standing on a really small object, and of course the trapeze artist flying ever so gracefully from swing to swing and not ever falling. For me that is what I get from this picture. The sculptures below give me that same feeling. Except they give a little mystery. They still have that kind of let's have fun look about them. Carrianne Hendrickson created both of the sculptures.
