When I first visited Dallas, I was impressed with the many sculptures around town. The Mustangs of Los Colinas impressed me a great deal. So when our daughter moved to Frisco, I asked her whether she had ever seen them. but she had not. But she did bring us here and to other outdoor art areas in Frisco, and then we went down into Dallas itself to see Trammel Crow's Pioneer Plaza cattle drive.

My feeling about this sculpture group is that it is an interesting idea - lively and informative, but the individual statues are not very well proportioned.

When my great niece was sending 'Flat Jillian' around for pictures, I decided to take her here with my granddaughter. I think the cowboy where we took the picture is a good illustration of the proportion problem. His legs are tiny in relation to the rest of the piece.

Review Helpfulness: 3.5 out of 5 stars
