    It looks like O'Brien Park & Denver Douglas County had almost perfect weather for Art in the Park, at least from the slideshow. I loved the little birdhouses. Very creative.

    I bought two small metal bug sculptures from an artist named Jim Nees. My husband loved them when I brought them home, he wanted to know if there was a website for this artist so we might be able to buy something else from them. If anyone has any information, I would appreciate it :)
    Thanks,
