About the Item

Frog singing on a log 2.0 x 5.0 x 10.0, 1.0 lbs Wood Hand signed by artist Artist's Commentary: "Whimsical frog singing in harmony on a log, as content as can be. This sculpture is made from a piece of wood my wife purchased for me from South America. The drift wood is from a lake in northern Idaho, where my family is from. The frogs bring an instant smile and its hard to view them and maintain thoughts that do not make you happy. There is nothing like the harmony of frogs at night when you can't sleep. The croaking is soothing and harmonic. A natural sedative." 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.

composition 19 - Original Abstract Wood Sculpture
Located in Boston, MA
composition 19 21.0 x 72.0 x 3.0, 20.0 lbs Wood Founder's stamp Artist's Commentary: "Wood wall sculpture. This piece is based on a style I made for the Health Partners' Behavioral Science Building in St. Paul, MN. I work with wood like a painter works with oils and a sculptor with stone. From a distance, lines, shapes, contours and shadows are easily seen but when you move from side to side, the change in perspective alters the image like the features of a face when it turns. If a light source moves, shadows in the piece move with it like the sun moving across a landscape. As you approach the piece, shallow contours appear like swells on a lake and intricate patterns emerge. You can't help but touch the smooth flowing surface to feel the highly finished solid wood. The furniture grade modified tung oil allows that. It also makes my art easy to clean if necessary. The lines and shapes in my art are the natural colors of solid wood joined along curves. No inlays, veneers, dyes or stains are used." About the Artist: Marc Lamm is a self-taught wood-artist who has been art since 1973. In 1996, he began developing techniques which he uses in his art. In 2011, he began making wood-wall-sculptures and has pieces in Mayo...

Mogan David 42.0 x 4.0 x 3.0, 17.0 lbs Wood Founder's stamp Artist's Commentary: "The maple lines emanate from the maple border in a purpleheart background and intersect to create the subtle Mogan David (Jewish star). I work with wood like a painter works with oils and a sculptor with stone. From a distance, lines, shapes, contours and shadows are easily seen but when you move from side to side, the change in perspective alters the image like the features of a face when it turns.
