Pastoral Dreamer

Location: W 133rd Street between Roe Avenue and Mission Road, Leawood, KS

Owner: City of Leawood

Artist: David Phelps

Dates: Dedicated October 27, 2005

Medium: Bronze

Description:

The artist, inspired by his childhood years on his family's farm, has created a larger-than-life size man, he is 17 feet long, laying back and relaxing after a hard day's work. The man has removed his shoes and has his eyes closed, perhaps asleep and dreaming. The sculpture gives the illusion that the man is partially submerged in the earth.
