the french horn connection
Here are some photos of my most recent musical instrument fountain. I enjoy building sculptures that share the same basic theme, and the French Horn Union is one of those. I think this is number nine or ten in the French Horn Union series. I'm calling this piece "The French Horn Connection" Each sculpture in the series shares the common factor of a pair of french horns setup in an "S" shaped pattern, but that's the end of any similarity. I couldn't duplicate a fountain sculpture if I tried.
the cat lady is completed - a sculpture made from recycled metals is revealed.
I am so very excited to have finished this sculpture; "Obsession" As many of you know, I mainly build water feature sculptures from up-cycled, discarded musical instruments and found objects, but once in awhile I get to stray from the usual and tread in unfamiliar places. The idea for the Cat Lady sculpture was inspired by one of my long time clients. She wanted me to build a significant piece as a gift for her employer. He, "the employer", is just crazy about cats; in fact he is the founder of a well known cat rescue organization.
