“The giant bird feels the gentle breeze through its feathers and it feels refreshed and renewed.”
Peter has kept things very simple here, to great effect. The wings form bold and dramatic lines down the body of the stork.
It would make a super focal point in a garden, as it’s interesting from every angle. This is the only tall grey sculpture we have from Peter this year, so if you’re tempted, don’t miss it!
TIP: use a spotlight to pick out the matt white surface, so it really stands out at night as well.
Peter has used a number of sculpting techniques to create the various contrasting finishes on this lovely elegant sculpture. He achieves the brushed effect of the feathers by stroking the stone with a blunt rasp. To create the shiny parts, he sands the stone smooth, then heats it and applies clear wax.
Springstone is a hard variety of serpentine stone. It is dense and impermeable and has very few flaws that might be exacerbated by frost action. Therefore, it is suitable for outdoor display even in colder climates. The base of sculpture is already drilled, ready for installation, and we can supply a suitable pin.
