Unique


The Shemer Art Center was having an open house on Saturday with many of it's art instructors doing demonstrations and talking about the classes they offer.  I stopped by to check it out.  I talked to a few of the artists and found two classes that appeal to me.  If I can work them into my schedule, I'll be signing up.  The visit also gave me an opportunity to see what is new around the center.  I loved this unusual planter with the five vessels hanging over a trough of water.  It's very unique.


And, of course I love the beautiful ceramic totems that are scattered throughout the center's garden.  This one is right by the door.  I have a few more shots form here that I'll be posting next week.

I have a new post on Sharon's Sojourns today.  I'm visiting a city in Italy that isn't on the normal tourist route.

  2. Two beautiful pictures and such an original planter.
    Pretty soon you will post a green ivy wall with one of your creations.

  6. I like the planter but I wouldn't want the upkeep on it. I would take the totem though!

  8. The top one is unusual, since water is so precious out your way. The second reminds me of the little rock cairns we've see so often on the trails in Death Valley and beaches of the Olympic Peninsula.

  10. The totem is very cool. Makes me think we need something sculptural for our garden. (Aside from our salvaged fireplace surround.)

  12. Love the totem Sharon, but the planter is such a fabulous idea especially for the climate that you and I live in.. I might have to have a think about this :)

  13. The planter definitely is unique; I find the ceramic totem a delightful difference from the traditional style.
