Sculpture from recycled items

reclaimed art

I think this is so beautiful the movement is captured.

The changing face of the seaside.

Website about Rhyl

The changing face of the seaside is not always a nice one, once a bustling town is partially demolished at the bottom end of the beach hopefully to make way for a new out of town shopping center and cafes, I hope this comes through, the town is so sad, so many people are unemployed and each time you go the another shop has closed.

Roundabouts

The wood worker uses the tree to carve the horse, when the horse is no longer needed, it is shredded to make paper, the artist uses the paper to recreate the horse.

Not so tatty now....

Finished mount, very pleased with the finish :)

How to mount a horse's head

Today is making the mount day, new jigsaw to play with and sand paper. So far it is all going well :)

Amazing horse art

Beautiful horses made from driftwood


These are fantastic, might be worth a visit to her garden to see how she works, I have ideas of my own for garden sculpture, but always like more inspiration.

Henry Moore

I know  from going to a talk by Bob and Roberta Smith that Henry Moore was an artist at the same time as Epstien, they werent friends.  I like Epstiens work and some of Henry Moores' but something I read the other day really made me like his work a little more,
" one persistand and very English theme in Moore work is landscape imagery, planes and hollows of the body can be found in the landscape a paralle between flesh and skin and the earth and vegitation that covers the rocks"

What a lovely comparision.
