Sculptures in the Garden

19 56 - Stuart Taylor (Deniliquin) Title - Murray Cod (150 x 70 x 180cm) Materials - Recycled scrap steel Price - $6,500 Artist’s Statement - I love making these big fish sculptures. This cod is about to strike so the mouth is wide open. My challenge is to make the fish appear to be floating with minimal support. 57 - Victoria Monk (Darlington) Title - In Balance (22 x 16 x 11cm) Materials - Recycled steel Price - $1,200 Artist’s Statement - In Balance as the title and sculpture suggests is a state of bodily equilibrium or equipoise, mental steadiness or emotional stability. Something we all aspire to in our lives. 58 - Roshelle Mckillop (Girilambone) Title - Brolgas (150 x 60 x 40 cm) Materials - Galvanized chicken wire copper wire Price - $1,000 Artist’s Statement - A familiar site after the drought breaking rain pairing up for spring on the western plains water courses. 59 - Elizabeth Blackmore (Broken Hill) Title - Rural Scene (212 x 91 x 86cm) Materials - Steel, canvas and acrylic house paint Price - $1,500 Artist’s Statement - ‘A beautiful garden is a work of heart’.

A nod to Tom Roberts.
