HUGE Sculpture Show at The Broadmoor Galleries

April 6, 2017 by Carol

Opening May 11th from 3-8 PM the BROADMOOR Galleries, book ending the Broadmoor Hotel, in Colorado Springs, CO will host their 3rd Sculpture Show featuring the work of over 25 acclaimed sculptors. Carol will participate and be available through the subsequent week-end to meet and share with collectors and interested persons. It is rare for fine art galleries to present sculpture only shows these days and we are thrilled to be included in one with such distinguished and renown talent. Thursday through the week-end the gallery will be energetically buzzing with many of these sculptors present to meet and speak with visitors. This is a very unique opportunity to both see amazing works and to meet the artists as well. The Broadmoor Gallery is impeccable in its professionalism and integrity – they continuously create a very inviting, warm and engaging climate for browsing the collection without hovering. It’s a deep joy to simply browse the gallery and soak in the truly remarkable collection they present. We are honored to be partners with them.

Gratitude and the Lost Wax Process now on UTube

December 21, 2016 by Carol

Gratitude
Sold Out 2 Artist proofs Available
7.25″ x 6″ x 6″

This week we posted a new UTube video showing many of the steps in the very lengthy lost wax process of casting the bronze vessel titled Gratitude. The video shows a simplification of the process while touching on most of the essential steps in this lengthy process. It typically takes between 8 and 12 weeks for one piece to move entirely through this process. It is interesting to note that if a mistake is made during ANY of the many steps, it can quickly demand an entirely new casting – beginning with the pouring of a new wax positive form. For EACH vessel cast, a new wax must be both poured and thoroughly cleaned (technically “dressed”) including, for my particular work, the exterior, the interior and ALL the many vast cut out areas in between. Most bronze sculptures do not have a visible interior, dramatically decreasing the necessary time to thoroughly clean the wax. While the Gratitude vessel limited edition sold out many years ago, two Artist Proofs still remain available for purchase, and a second, more recent vessel featuring the California Poppy, Remembering Gratitude, is still an open edition and available for immediate purchase.

To view the video – share and like it – please visit:

Similar videos are available on UTube highlighting Seeds of Harmony, Celestial Joy, Trillium, and Womb of Life.

Mighty Oak and Possibilities in Juried Exhibition

November 7, 2016 by Carol

Mighty Oak
4″ x 4.5 x 4.5″

Mighty Oak and Possibilities have been juried into the 2016 5x5x5 Art Exhibition to be held at the River Oaks Arts Center, 1330 Second Street, Alexandria, LA from November 18, 2016 through January 13, 2017. American Museum Director, Mark A. Tullos, Jr. was the selected juror for this miniature exhibition. He is currently the President and C.E.O. of the Mississippi Arts and Entertainment Experience. Mighty Oak presents twelve (an elder number) of tiny acorns within the roots of the three trees and offers inspiration to express appreciation for the seeds our elders have planted allowing us to enjoy the subsequent fruits while also igniting a deeper appreciation for the vast potency of OUR individual seeds – no matter how seemingly tiny they may appear to us. This limited edition of 120 pieces is VERY close to selling out, so if you hold interest in this piece now is the time to act.

Possibilities is presented in a satin lined velvet pouch excellent for gift-giving. This small acorn speaks to the promise that each of us – in every season of our lives – are living with absolute purpose – never lost. It is a beautiful desk top, or bookshelf sized inspirational piece.

Possibilities

2.75″ x 3.5″ x 2.5″
