KINGSTON SPRINGS, Tenn. -- Not many people like the looks of dead trees. But one man has found a way to save the city of Kingston Springs some money by transforming dead trees into works of art.

Lundy Cupp is carving faces into two dead trees that are near a downtown day care.

The city manager said Cupp heard they were going to cut the trees down and volunteered to "spruce them up."

The city just had to trim some limbs before he could get to work.
