Abstract Steel Sculpture – In Progress

A larger outdoor steel sculpture I started working on today. So far so good. The “balance” is right and scale seems pretty good. Just tacked up for now so I can continue to modify. To do: figure out topping it off and a few additions to the base. Stands about 6.5 ft. high and about 8 ft. wide so far.

Sculpture Supply – Latest Drop Off

Here are a few items recently dropped off by a friend of mine. Love the tapered cylinder! It is actually a log splitter if you can believe that. Will make a nice piece of sculpture I am sure. More shovel heads too!

Bottle Tree

I friend has been bugging me for a bottle tree now for over a year. I am not crazy about them although they are growing on me (pardon the pun). It will look great outside and complete with assorted bottle shapes and colors.

Lobster

A lobster I did for a good friend of mine in Maine. Sits proudly in front of his house with his buoy. He has been a lobsterman for over 40 years so I was not sure how he would react. Lucky for me he loved it.

Retired Tool #9

A bit larger “Retired Tool” than the rest I have done so far. Looks a lot like a dancer (that has been the reaction from a few folks anyway). Still working on the finish and balance as this size is a bit trickier to keep stable on it’s base.

Retired Tool #8

I am still having lots of fun with the “Retired Tools” series. Here is one of the latest. Just got back from Maine with a bundle of tools and found objects. Still working on the finish but pretty much done.
