Finster's love affair with art began when he was just a kid, and he's been creating non-stop ever since. He's made art from everything from old toys and tools to recycled materials and even natural objects like leaves and twigs. His motto? "Make something out of nothing" - and boy, has he ever!
One of the quirkiest things about Finster's garden is the way he's blended art and architecture. You'll find mosaics and murals on the walls, sculptures and statues in the gardens, and even elaborate bridges and walkways to explore. It's like stepping into a fantasy world, where anything is possible and the rules of reality don't apply.
Finster's also famous for his "visions" - mysterious and often humorous messages that he claims come to him from God. These visions have inspired some of his most bizarre and brilliant art pieces, and they add an extra layer of intrigue and fascination to the garden. Who knows what secrets the garden holds, or what hidden meanings are lurking beneath the surface?
