SCULPTURE OF THE WEEK

I am currently creating "The Little Mermaid" at 18" for a collector in Maui, Hawaii. Years ago, I went to Copenhagen with my daughter. We visited the famous statue of The Little Mermaid on the rocky shores of the city. I wanted to create my own version of this beautiful sculpture. Here she is in bronze on a coral base. She is now available in bronze at 6" and 18" and in bronzed carbomate (high density urethane coated with a thin layer of bronze) at 3'. I just began a new mermaid that will be much darker in spirit.  In a few months we will be opening the new gallery in my home and you can all come and see all my work finally in a beautiful atmosphere with perfect lighting. We have a few surprises in store.

SCULPTURE OF THE WEEK 10/31/11

I wanted to share the back story behind my piece, "The Little Mermaid". She was made from clay, then cast in bronze at the foundry. She sits atop a limestone base. I went to Copenhagen with my daughter when she was very young. We visited the famous statue of The Little Mermaid on the rocky shores of the city. I wanted to create my own, strong version of this delightful sculpture. She has more attitude than most as she surveys the world with total calm.
