Richard Fox Art

b. 1965
Working to drawings and sketches, Fox brings the flow of his pencil lines to life, with the form and void of each sculpture giving them a natural rhythm. In his wooden works, Fox shows unique skill in creation using sycamore and natural pigment, each sculpture twisted and turned, sanded and varnished to withstand temperature variation and moisture changes. Using techniques derived from those of boat-builders, Fox crafts timber into intricate forms inspired by musical scores, for example Ravel. Each section is bonded to make the visually delicate structure remarkably resilient. Works are then fixed to a sandstone base using a stainless steel pin and shaft which allows them to rotated for different angles of viewing. "The sculptures take time to make. I visualise a space, a void, and sketch a shape to fill it. This is to describe the process in its simplest way. In the act of sketching, I am trying to achieve a form that works as a whole. The combinations of material and shape in both the sculpture and space within the curves. The making of the sculpture from this point becomes very exacting and involves intense concentration. Working out exact angles, twists and curves, there is very little room for error. Then, the sculpting begins, using a variety of tools and skills that have been developed over the years... There are a lot of processes in making the sculpture and all of them have taken time to evolve. I think some of the most satisfying times for me include the point at which I am by myself, in the studio, and having completed a work, I place it on the plinth. There is a sense of us having been on a long journey that is now at an end. I am looking at something that did not exist before this moment. It is looked at for the first time, with all that involves."

"Bird" Abstract Bronze Sculpture with Wooden Base
Located in Houston, TX
W. R. Stevenson's abstract bronze sculpture titled "Bird". The unique sculpture stands on a sleek wooden base and has a plaque that includes the artist and title. Artist Biography: William Robert Stevenson was born in 20 May 1925 in Eugene, Oregon. His family moved to Minneapolis, MN but he promptly returned to Oregon and Washington during the Great Depression to work in the Works Progress Administration (WPA). Hoping to study Art, his future was sidetracked when he was drafted into the United States Army at age 17 years old in early 1942. Being a strong swimmer, and having worked at stables as a child, he initially served in the last US Cavalry Corps, and also as a Swimming Instructor for the United States Army. Upon the abolition of the Cavalry Corps, he was trained as a Gunnar and Tank Commander for the M-4 Sherman Tank under General Patton...

Towards the sky (walnut wood bird abstract art zen sculpture pedestal minimal)
By Eric Tardif
Located in Quebec, Quebec
This steam-bent wooden sculpture is made of black walnut with a red sandstone base. The wood grain and the color are uniqueness of this sculpture. The wood has magnificent stripe patterns of paler and darker colors. The title, Toward the Sky, could have different meanings to humans during this hard period. One of them is to stay positive and keep hope. In some cultures, a heron symbolizes contemplation, vigilance, divine wisdom, and inner quietness. As a Chinese symbol, a heron represents strength, purity, patience and long life. In Africa, herons were thought to communicate with the Gods. The elegance and purity of the lines are reminiscent of Native American art from Western Canada.The elegance and purity of the lines are reminiscent of Native American art from Western Canada including that of Benjamin Chee...
