OC Library Whimsy

Have you  been to the OC Library recently? I stopped by and then stopped in my tracks when confronted with this large creature in the lawn! What is it? Made of metal, looks like a horse, but has a long fish-like tail. The artist calls it Hippocampus, and the sculpture is part of a temporary display at the library. When you visit you'll see other works of art on display, too. Might want to bring a camera.

I couldn't resist making my own pastel version of the artwork. My rendition of the Carnegie building is almost as whimsical as the Hippocampus I think!
