Have you ever wanted a flowering vine or rose bush that makes a real statement in your garden. In fact it's so beautiful you could definitely call it art.As you can see from the grouping of three Bougainvillea trellises and the patio and chairs in the background, these are huge and tall.

Abstract Garden Art Sculptures
and Fountains
"Is Classicism Dead and Buried in the Sands of Time?"
Despite the wide variety of works, her style is instantly recognizable particularly the landscape forms and the figurative forms. ~

Fire Bowl Garden Art by Artisan
and Modern Security Art Burglar Bars
Have you ever wondered what on earth you could do for your casement window to make it more attractive, besides hiding it with foilage? Well, John T. Unger is an artist who decided to forge ahead with his idea of creating a modern abstract burglar bars casement grate that sparks the question, "Why hadn't anyone thought of this sooner?". Who would have thought that burglar bars could look so attractive!
Each fire bowl is hand cut in the shape of flames, with a rich patina, and they look beautiful blazing with real flames or not. Each one is cut by hand, never repeating the exact same design. It can be placed on various architectural situations, or just on a simple heat-resistant stand. These fire bowls are functional garden art. He also creates metals gates, grilles, other artistic bowls of fire pits and more!
See John's fantastic Fire Bowls on my lens Cool Outdoor FireBowls that you can buy online.

Stone Sculptures
11/05/31
The Kwan Yin is designed as a miniature of a monumental scale sculpture and is intended to be placed in a garden as if it fell there hundreds of years ago.
What I adore about this sculpture is the blissful look on the face that is expressed through the closed eyes and a slight tilt up in the corners of the mouth. This beautiful sculpture would complement rustic and natural outdoor settings with uneven terrain. Concrete Sculptures suitable for Indoor or Outdoor Garden Art.
Dry Stone Sculpture Art
Max Nowell's journey into stone sculpture garden art started with farming where he repaired dry-stone field walls. He later left farming and took up walling full-time. He has worked with the world renowned Andy Goldsworthy, and has exhibited in galleries in Scotland and England. He writes, "My work gives the same stone a chance to express its life more immediately. Whether it is a sinuous carving of a knotted rope or an imposing dry-stone sculpture representing an egg or a seed, the ever-changing play of light and weather on the rough-textured surfaces provides endless interest, and the slow changes wrought by mosses, lichen, insects and birds only add to the richness of the piece."Image Copyright by Max Nowell

Dan Snow builds stone walls implementing the ancient dry-stone method. The book is full of engaging and moody photos of rather ancient looking art that appears as if it has been part of the scenery for centuries. Snow is poetic, inspiring, informative and writes beautifully.
Another fabulously popular book by Snow is Listening to Stone.
Listening to Stone
Dan Snow is one of America's premier artisans and his medium is stone. He creates structures as breathtaking as sculpture with nothing but gravity as their glue. The book is chalk full of thought-provoking and entertaining writing and beautiful and intriguing photos as well.
Water Fountains
11-11-10
Rayman is a copper artist who has been creating copper fountains for over 16 years. He designs copper sculptures from geometric shapes and the water creates the element of movement. This contemporary, structural, yet functional fountain called "Troika II" would look lovely in a modern patio setting. The water flowers quietly over each tier.
