Today I have a few pieces that appealed to me at the Scottsdale Fine Art Expo. This first one is made from a gourd. I've seen gourd art before but these were pretty special. They are by Jenny Kerr.
Jane Boggs is also a sculptor who uses gourds but these are truly mixed media creations done with paint, beads and feathers.
I thought these were so extraordinary that I photographed two of them. They are wonderful. I think they would be perfect in one of our many southwestern styled resorts. Or maybe over the fireplace of one of those fancy homes I toured recently.
These last sculptures are by a husband and wife team, Terry & Marilyn Alexander. These are also creations that would fit in at many local resorts around here. They are made from metal and glass.
I'm glad I got to see these beautiful creations. I also wish I had the money and space needed to acquire one or too.
I hope these art exhibits attract decorators. They would surely be inspired.
Nice to see the beautiful artistic skills of others.
