Well, with all the snow we've been having, who hasn't been out there making snow people? This feller is a unique artistic creation, influenced by realism (note the extra rolls) and somewhat of a kafkaesque shapelessness. The carrot was short-lived as Wendell made off with it soon after these pictures were taken.
And what snowscene would be complete without a pug?
Please note the careful attention to detail: the piqued, curled ears, the button nose and bulbous eyes, the strong stubby legs, the barrel body, and the piggy tail. Sharon thinks there's something wrong with me because I took 14 pictures of the snowpug, but she doesn't understand that to represent true art in a photograph, the angle, lighting, and background must be absolutely perfect.
The snowman toppled over within an hour, but this little snowpug lasted for days, gradually eroding with great elegance and beauty, like the sphinx.

That snowpug is a true work of art.
It's nice to see you humans redeem yourselves and acquire the proper pug perspective.

ps - can you come and build some snowpugs in my yard?
Ah, Muffin, it would be a true honour to create a work of art just for you. You would make the perfect model. What kind of rates do you charge for modelling? Would a couple of dog treats and a slice of cheese do?
Hehehehe .. that's so cool. Great Job on the snow pug !! I wish I had a place to build snowmen and play in the snow .. :)
Touching, poignant, moving, stirring, evocative, contemplative... sometimes you need a little finesse...
tired.
Josh.
How much time did it take you to make? And I also wonder which took longer to build - the snow pug or the snow person?

I can't help but notice there are no REAL pugs in any of these pictures. Why don't you just come clean and admit it. There's only 1 way to make a snow pug with such detail, and we all know what it is. tsk tsk tsk ...
;)
hahahaha Jason
That's hilarious
The snowpug took about the same amount of time as the snowperson, by the way. One involved a lot more rolling, the other more attention to detail (tail especially). But all in all, I didn't spend more than 20 minutes on both, and half that time was taking pictures or looking for gravel for the eyes.
