Fun With Snow Sculptures (10 Photos)
This set focuses on snow used with intent rather than decoration. A full-scale Venus torso rises from a parking lot. A dancing couple is shaped with correct proportions and posture. An owl made of snow is placed next to a real owl, matching its size and stance.
Other works lean into physical placement: a figure seated on a park bench, a snowman balanced upside down, one built around a mailbox, another placed in a wheelchair, and a dog recreated beside the animal it copies. The pieces rely on positioning, scale, and reference to work before they melt away.

1. Venus de Milo Without a Head
A tall snow sculpture shaped like a classical female torso, referencing the ancient marble statue Venus de Milo. The smooth surface and draped lower section imitate carved stone while standing alone in a snowy parking area.
2. Winter Waltz
Two snow figures posed as a dancing couple, facing each other with hands placed at shoulder and waist. Their clothing and posture suggest formal attire shaped entirely from packed snow.
3. Snow Cat Climbing Trees
A small snow figure wrapped around a tree trunk, using the bark and knot holes as part of the face and body. The snow is applied directly to the tree to form arms and legs.
4. Impostor Owl
A snow owl sculpture placed next to a real owl, copying its shape, size, and posture. Stones and small objects are used for eyes and markings to mirror the living bird.
5. Mailbox Monster
A snow creature built around an open mailbox, using it as a mouth. Sticks form arms, and small objects create eyes and eyebrows, turning a driveway into a staged scene.
6. Park Bench Companion
A seated snow figure placed on a wooden bench, with legs hanging over the edge. The simple facial features and posture suggest a quiet moment in a public park.
7. Headstand Snowman
An upside-down snowman balanced on its head, with boots used as feet and a scarf wrapped around the inverted body. The pose adds movement to an otherwise static form.
8. Snowman in a Wheelchair
A snow figure seated in a real wheelchair, using the chair’s structure as part of the sculpture. The piece blends snow with everyday mobility equipment.
9. Double Dog
A small snow dog positioned beside a real dog of similar size and color. The sculpture mimics the animal’s stance and proportions using minimal details.
10. After the Party
A collapsed snowman lying across wooden pallets, surrounded by empty bottles. The scene is staged to resemble exhaustion after a long night.
