Faducci received final approval from the Frisco, Texas Art Board for the design for Pearson Acres Park.
In tribute to the Pearson Dairy Farm and the Pearson family Faducci has designed a sculpture depicting a life-sized Holstein dairy cow with milking stool. A Cottontail Rabbit wearing Mr. Pearson’s trademark red suspenders and cap is shown kissing noses with the cow. A group of multi-colored Irises will be clumped behind the rabbit. The design of the sculpture is intended to reflect the legacy of the land that housed the dairy farm, Mr. Pearson and the Pearson family, and the surrounding wildlife. Depicting the Cottontail Rabbit in jeans, suspenders and the red cap are to acknowledge Mr. Pearson’s daily work and dress in a whimsical manner. The sculpture itself will provide plenty of interaction for kids, teens and adults as well as photo opportunities. Our goal is to create a memorial to Mr. Pearson, his dairy and family homestead that will provide a gathering place for visitors.
Great explanation of the design.
Nice! Congratulations. I love the design.
Moo!

Faducci has been selected to create sculpture for Pearson Acres Park in Frisco, Texas. The park will be built on land once owned by Charles Pearson and his family. Pearson graduated with a degree in Agriculture from Texas A&M after returning from WWII as an officer in the Marine Corps. He moved back to the Frisco area to farm and was hired as a Vocational Agriculture teacher at Frisco High School. His wife Emily and their four children settled in Frisco in 1958 and opened a dairy farm on the land that will become Pearson Acres Park. He would go on to serve as the President of the Frisco ISD Board of Trustees for 10 years. Pearson and family remained active at the dairy until 1987.
