About the Item
Flamingos
3.5 x 7.0 x 3.5, 1.5 lbs
Wood
Hand signed by artist
Artist's Commentary:
"The flamingos were made from a piece of cypress wood found on my son's property in Aiken, South Carolina. As with many of my sculptures, the natural beauty of the wood enhances the sculpture in ways that could not have been foreseen or imagined in the beginning. The multi-colors of the wood enhance the simple and elegant beauty of the birds with a natural orange tint, but the natural color of the wood near the base finished the legs and grasses perfectly, and unexpectedly. Whenever I am stressed, I view the serenity of the flamingo, its gracefulness and beauty, and I am instantly hopeful and filled with gratitude."
About the Artist:
Mike began creating original, one of a kind, wood sculptures when 17 years of age. He has no formal training, but an eye for the creative and the beauty of wood. After a year, he took a fifty year hiatus to pursue a family and professional career as a lawyer. He recently returned to wood sculpturing in the past two years, partly to stay positive and encouraged while experiencing life's transitions into aging. In a year and a half, he created approximately 30 sculptures. He considers it as art therapy. Although he initially created the sculptures for himself and family, others expressed admiration for the unique art and recently, he shared his first sculpture with the world by selling the cello player to a friend. She was so excited to share the cello player with her granddaughter, who plays the cello, he realized what happiness and hope art can bring to others and he wants to share his art with anyone who will appreciate and enjoy it. All of the woods have a unique history and meaning. He preserves history and memories through certain pieces of wood, by taking wood that would be destroyed and making it into something beautiful.

Monkey Head Natural Sisal Fiber Clay Sculpture Chimpanzee Anne Andersson Art
Located in Surfside, FL
Anne Andersson
Sisal fiber wall sculpture
Monkey Head (# 1)
Hand signed to verso
Dated 2009.
Measures approx. 11" height x 10" width x 6 1/4" depth.
Her sculptures are made of natural sisal Fiber from an agave and meticulously hand painted. The eyes are hand blown glass.
Anne Andersson was born in Gothenburg, Sweden, with a great desire to explore Nature and a Passion for Art. She received a degree in science in 1981 from Kjällbergska University in Gothenburg and a degree in Art from the Art Institute of Fort Lauderdale. She now works from her studio in St. Petersburg, Florida as a Sculptor, illustrator and painter. Her work calls to mind the animalia artworks of Henri Maik and Gustavo Novoa.
Anne Andersson's artwork serves as an homage to our planet’s charismatic and rare wild animals. Inspired by the majesty and beauty of exotic wildlife, and motivated by an urge to preserve them, Anne’s astonishingly realistic life-size sculptures capture the experience of seeing these animals up close without exploiting them. Her sculpted work using natural materials and clay, provides a humane alternative to big game trophy hunting and taxidermy.
She combines her talents in painting, tapestry weaving and illustration with an intuitive attention to the smallest detail to truly bring her sculptures to life. She has created lions, tigers, leopards, jaguars, cheetahs, bobcats, lynxes, pumas, panthers, elephants, rhinos, bears, water buffalo, bison, moose, wolves, coyotes and more—but she feels closest to the big cats. Anne graduated with honors at the Art Institute of Fort Lauderdale in 1989. It was then that she met Don Moore...
