4 small Marble sculptures

January and February of 2024 were mild and I was able to get some work done in the studio.  I began to make small marble pieces that could be used to embelish memorials.  All 4 pieces are made from Georgia White Marble.
The first piece that I made was this Tree of Life.  It measures 13"H x 8" x 8" and weighs approx. 40 lbs.

This is "Sacred Flight" and it measures 22"H x 8" x 6" and weighs approx. 60 lbs.



This is "Victory Rose".  It measures 12"H x 10" x 6" and weighs approx. 44 lbs.




This is "Mourning Dove".  It measures 10"H x 16" x8" and weighs approx. 44 lbs.



 

"Metamorph" stone sculpture

The last quarter of 2023 was spent on creating a large garden sculpture. (There was lots of other "stuff" happening, but nothing that I want to share on this blog...)
This piece is called "Metamorph" and it is about Transformation.

as you walk around the piece...


It is carved from Indiana Limestone and measures 40" high x 48" wide by 18" deep and weighs around 1,000 lbs.


Here' a detail photo that shows different textures.

This photo shows some of the detail on the back...

...and a detail of one of the spiral forms on the front.

My cat posed with the piece to help visualize the scale.
