What a difference a day makes! The National Sculptors' Guild Sculpture Garden is looking really different today from what it did on Tuesday. We can't wait to see how this big wet snow helps the flowers coming up... the forsythia didn't fair well. #SpringInColorado #PoorForsythia #AprilBlizzard Special thanks to Advantage Bank who put together this ad celebrating our 500th placement, the Thompson Valley Rotary Club's Legacy Project which includes Denny Haskew's Reaching Our Goal sculpture. click here to learn more We've had a fantastic experience with Advantage Bank, if you're seeking a supportive community bank in the area... we highly recommend them.

The topic, Today's Sculpture Market. John talks about some of JK Designs' projects and the trends we've seen in our 25th year of designing and placing residential and public art statements. "Those brave sculptors who wouldn't be deterred from sharing their visions. ...put forth their best efforts and kept foundries, fabrication shops, and brick and mortar gallery doors open. Sculpture is a team sport in most instances requiring many hands." -John Kinkade from 'Sculpture in Today's World', Art of the West July/August 2017 Pick up a copy to read the full article.... The National Sculptors' Guild Sculpture Garden is filling up for summer with new sculpture and blossoms. We are pleased to have three new pieces from Stephen Shachtman. click the images below to shop online. Stephen Shachtman is constantly seeking to find something new and stimulating in either a physical or cerebral sense. The sculptures he creates circulate with aesthetics in contemporary forms with influences and inspiration from, science, architecture, and techniques. These inspirations inform him to create series’ with specific dialogue due to process', dimensions, material usage, and overall presence.
Depending on the sculptural forms and concepts, a few primary materials employed are; copper, glass, and steel. Some of the elements in Stephen’s work range from; hammered surfaces which have an organic aesthetic while overall forms tend to have clean lines with a minimalist approach yet are monolithic in presence. Some aesthetics are large-scale filigree in the metal that allows a viewer to see through the organic forms, while similar manipulation of glass elements are stacked to create positive and negative spaces. All pieces are affected by the orientation of light to unveil the personality of the sculptures, which create a 4th dimension of shadows and reflection as they emerge to produce an element of surprise. On our trip to Boerne, Texas we installed a sculpture at a client's home. This ideal placement just happened to work out beyond comprehension - we knew Denny Haskew's mother and child sculpture "Moulding Our Future" would look nice - but this exceeded everyone's expectations. The sandstone patina against the texas limestone, the flow of the composition against the archway. We think this is a perfect example of Living with Art. Below are images from the installation. We hope you enjoy seeing sculptures in the air - we're happy to install your next fine art purchase. Jane DeDecker's Water is also pictured. Wayne Salge has just shared his latest compositions. Per usual, they are packed with strong form and a clever mix of sophistication and humor. These monuments are being cast in bronze at the foundry now. If you'd like more information about either or both please call or email,
