Obelisk


Back in July I posted a photo of the Cancer Survivor's Memorial sculpture that is located in a little pocket-park. That little park is named the Cancer Survivor's Park.

This pretty obelisk is also located in that same tiny park.



























It's called the Blue Moon Obelisk and it was created by Marlo Bartels.

Bartels is a well known California ceramic artist.  I don't know of any other pieces he's created that are located in the Phoenix area but this one certainly is a beauty.  I love it!
