'Cello Reclaimed' ( a much larger piece, 26"x48")
'Lute Reclaimed'
'Reclamation' by JD Isaacs...
13"x36" a violin that was beyond repair and use as a musical instrument was 'reclaimed' by nature in this piece. The background was also recycled from packing materials overpainted with acrylic paint and satin varnish. Polymer clay was used to create the vines and leaves.
RECYCLE ART PROJECT
ROSE Squared is transforming the gallery into a showing of artworks using recycled materials and objects for the Decatur Arts Festival. Please come and bring your friends to the Art Walk on Friday, May 28. There are magical works of art to behold made from ordinary and extraordinary materials... Sculpture from melted down metal car parts turned into sophisticated sea turtles and birds in flight, by reknowned metal artist, Ivan Bailey. Whimsical ornaments made from old postcards and advertisements by artist Lucinda Patterson. Edgar Figueroa created table center pieces from broken cello parts. And I am making use of broken musical instruments donated by Emil Baran's Music Showroom, as shown below. And a a special treat for the kids and kids at heart, you will be greeted at the door by a flock of grinning sheep made entirely of packing cardboard.
Come out to see us during the festival!
Be sure to stop by Rose Squared. If you have not been there you need to take the time to visit.
