Florence Squirrelingale, RN, Woodland in the City, Olean NY
I have to decide about my healthcare for next year soon, so I am posting an animal related to healthcare.  I did not get to see this squirrel.



From Woodland in the City Locations
Artist: Theresa E. Heinz
Sponsor: Southern Tier Anesthesiologists, PC; Douglas Borromeo, MD; Stephen Carlson, MD; Orlando Cruz, MD; Hector Martinez, MD; Wade Porterfield, MD; Barry Kulp, CRNA
Location: Olean General Hospital, 500 Main Street, Olean
In the Artists words: Florence Squirrelingale, RN was sponsored by the anesthesiologists at the Olean General Hospital. She especially enjoyed creating the three dimensional additions required, such as her stethoscope, “pill” buttons, and nurse’s cap. It is her hope that Florence will bring a smile to all those who may be entering or exiting the hospital.
Bio: Theresa Heinz lives in Cuba with her husband and two daughters. She has taught art at the Olean High School for 14 years. Most recently her artwork has moved away from traditional landscape painting to mixed media collage and clay sculpture. Theresa believes that we should create art continually not because we can, but because we must feel that creating is part of the fiber of our being.

Ronald McSquirrel, Woodland in the City, 2007

Today is National Fast Food Day so this squirrel says go eat at a fast food restaurant today, preferrably McDonalds! 

Photos are from: City of Olean Squirrel Page - click on the each squirrel's name to see the photos.


Artist: Melissa Meyers, Allegany, NY
Sponsor: Your Local McDonald’s
Location: Lincoln Park, East State Street, Olean
In the Artists words: With a background in graphic design, she faced challenges that she never had to before, but was determined to make Ronald Squirrel come to life. The idea was to have something that appealed to kids. Ronald appeals to kids, so, being the owner of the local McDonald's, Ronald was the obvious choice.
Bio: Melissa Meyers has an Associate in Art degree from JCC and Bachelor's in Graphic Design from Buffalo State College. She participated in the Allentown Art Festival.

Cow Potato, Harrisburg CowParade 2004
Hoping that this cow will inspire me to exercise instead of being a couch or cow potato!  It's hard though when it gets cold and dark early this time of year.

Memoo…An inspiration form the workplace,a parody of a productive desk. When it's 4pm on Monday and your to-do list increases expontentially, take one glance at Memoo, and you're forced to grin.
