Announcing...the Parks for Peace Race!!!!

Please help us create leaders of the future!
We want to inspire art around the world
as seen through the eyes of children.

Please help support this cause.

The first International Peace Park
will be created and designed by children!

Parks for Peace International, a non-profit group, is an organization dedicated to creating monumental sculpture peace parks with and for underprivileged children, allowing their voices to be heard and shared with their communities and the world. The first park will be in Florida and then will expand to other states and eventually other countries - nurturing the talent of the leaders of tomorrow, awarding the best of them with educational trips, art supplies, art scholarships and helping to make their dreams a reality.

Great News!!

Publicity!

Recently Nina has had the pleasure of being contacted by the team over at KOJewel.com to have an article written on her and her sculptures.

Here is what they had to say!
You can also visit the article here

"The larger than life characters Nina Winters molds and shapes capture power, beauty and grace. Superheroes, angels, The Child King of the Known and Unknown Universes or eternal dreamers tell us stories of bravery, resilience and love. The Le Marseillaise inspired Liberte, with her bright, sanguine patina and intricate wings; the sweet, embracing couple that rests atop a heart shaped stele engraved with A Love Poem, by Elizabeth Barrett Browning or the eternal dreamer that still sees hope in this star while the world is cracking under him in So, What Now?, all her figures are highlighted by the subtle nuances she achieves and the restraint of her color palette. Ms. Winters studied at the College of Fine Arts and Architecture at Cornell University, the School of Visual Arts and Parsons School of Design. While she began her career in the field of paint and color, her travels and nature inspired her create monumental sculptures. Her awards winning works have been exhibited in galleries and museums around the world. Her most recent commissions included a 7′ x 9′ “Galactic Samurai” for the Senior Vice President of Pepsico and a 16 1/2′, stainless steel “Eternity” for the city of Kirov, Russia."

COMPLETED SOLAR MERMAID

Here is my completed solar sculpture, before being shipped to the Great Lakes Bay Region, Michigan, where it will be publicly displayed through the end of October.

Russia Update

I am currently in Kirov, working on a project to create monumental sonic sculptures for the city. I got to watch myself on television last night. People are actually recognizing me in the street from a recent local newspaper article. 

Today I did a radio interview and made about 50 videos of people for a Matroyeshka doll sculpture I am creating. We are now planning a Friday night lecture I am giving and then I meet with an engineering club!

I should add that, during the TV interview, I was interviewing other people (it was very interesting) and asking them what they hope for the future of their city, the world and for their children. Almost all of them said that they want peace and that Americans and Russians should love each other. 

It has been a wonderful trip so far! 

TAMPA BAY MAGAZINE ARTICLE

GLASS SCULPTURE

An image of my sculpture, "War Paint", on a custom stainless steel base. To see how this piece was made, visit my blog post about it!

NEWEST SCULPTURE

My recently completed sculpture, "Liberté".
This bronze piece was Inspired by the French national anthem “Le Marseillaise”.

Through the ages, conflicts have been waged through bloody battles on the fields and shores of distant nations.

We now need to win the fight within ourselves.

The sanguine patina on this angel (sanguine – blood red – from the French word “blood”) is an aesthetic symbol for the heart and life force within us.
