Sask Mark Posted July 24, 2012 Posted July 24, 2012 A woman I work with asked me to make her a sculpture for her upcoming family reunion. Our provincial flower is the tiger lily and there is a lot of agriculture here as well so she wanted to incorporate these themes into the sculpture. I came up with this for her. Her family has a raffle at their reunions where everyone brings something to raffle off. The proceeds go towards paying for the next reunion. This will be raffled off in a couple of weeks. Quote
beth Posted July 24, 2012 Posted July 24, 2012 thasts great mark - someone will be sure to love it, people are fascinated by metal flowers i have found :) i love the ears of corn particularly actually - have never made them... Quote
Sask Mark Posted July 24, 2012 Author Posted July 24, 2012 Uh-oh. Beth, those are supposed to be wheat, not corn. I guess I should work on them a bit more. Thanks for the compliments! Quote
Ben van Leeuwen Posted July 24, 2012 Posted July 24, 2012 That looks pretty good to me. My only comment (I hate to criticize it, because it is 10 times better than I could do) is that it looks to me like the wheat heads are upside down. Wheat kernels are pointed up from the stem. Other than that, I agree with Beth that someone is sure to love having it on display in their house. Quote
Sask Mark Posted July 24, 2012 Author Posted July 24, 2012 That's a good point Brian. I have never looked at it that way. It would be easy to just flip them over and forge the point on the other end. Thanks for the feedback! Quote
