Artists: we invite you to display your work on our web pages, so please contact us via e mail with some photos of your work if you think we may be able to help.
This is a contribution from a local artist, Steve Baxter,
Riboleau Street
, Ryde, IOW.
“The starting point for all of my sculptures is the place they will end up, whether it is garden, park, square or gallery.
There are many considerations for a sculpture beyond it’s image; balancing impact with harmony, instant interest with longevity or durability with purposeful fragility to name a few.
I have been lucky enough to gain commissions that have tickled my art-bone and challenged me through their brief. These have become creations in metal, stone, wood, wire, or whatever the place demanded.
Describing pieces only shows where words can fail and looking succeeds; the pictures that accompany this give you a glimpse. To help sculpture live you need to be right there with it.”
