  "Kestrel's Way"
    St. Vrain Greenway, Longmont, Colorado
 
Field stone mosaic 15 x 8 feet, path 150 feet long with 60-foot, artist-built concrete bridge and steel and branch rail.
 
The artwork gives people a bird's-eye view of the trees along a river embankment, providing a new and refreshed sense of the place. The bridge is the main part of the sculpture.   The mosaic of the kestrel hawk gives a frame of reference for viewing the bridge and a link to the local wildlife. It is one of the artist's six artworks along a two-mile river walk. The artist was commissioned for first three by national competition, then directly invited for three more. Called "From Wildlife's Eye's," the first three showed wildlife from its spatial perspective (as here). The next three showed a social connection to nature. City of Longmont Art in Public Places
