When it comes to unique art, a sculpture that you can go inside of is definitely unique. Colorado is lucky to have so many great pieces of art. Have you seen this one?

A 21-foot tall sculpture that blends a woman and a tree has been installed in a Colorado city's 100-acre park. In a park that not only includes works of art, but ziplining, the sculpture is going to fit right in.

Having grown up in Loveland, I've seen many sculptures come to that town at Benson Sculpture Garden and Chapungu Sculpture Park, to name a couple of places.

It still amazes me the amount of creativity (matched with hard work) that exists, in not only America but across the world, to bring us such great art. All of it is so much better than anything I could even think of creating.

In recent years, Coloradans have been amazed by the trolls that have gone up in Breckenridge and Glenwood Springs. This new sculpture in Colorado is in the same vein: Large with human-like features.
