Giant Pencil Sculpture Near Lake of the Isles

Giant Pencil Sculpture Near Lake of the Isles
A large pencil sculpture stands partly buried in fresh snow near Lake of the Isles in Minneapolis. The piece—well-known to neighborhood walkers and cyclists—sits on the lawn of a private residence and has become a quiet local landmark. Framed by stone steps, evergreens, and early-season snowfall, it reflects the eclectic public-facing art found throughout the surrounding residential areas of the Chain of Lakes.
