Esteem

Through the process of doing Submission and Redeem, I have finally created a piece  that is more of the image that evokes the emotion I was searching for.

 Esteem is 9' tall 91" wide and 18" deep.  Looks incredable in the area that it is placed.

Triptych - 2D 3D

Fractured series  3pcs. 14" x 30" (approx.)

Human forms.

Submission approx. 4' tall

Redeem

approx. 7' tall x 6' wide

Experimenting with changing the arms

Petrified Tree #2

The New Tree.  12' tall

Concrete trunk with copper branches.
Very high tech concrete which allowed me finer features in concrete.

Sculptures for Roan and Black Gallery.

I have finally found someone who appreciates my sculptures. Morelity and Sobjective are already there and I will be moving Petrified and Parasol in the Spring.


Thanks to Doug and John at Roan and Black.


    This is a new piece I call "Parasoul".  Found the look. The stem was the challenge. The cap incorporates a "bird bath". I want all by pieces to be accepted by nature.

The name of this piece is Petrified. It is located by my business.














   I call this piece "Morelity"

I enjoyed naming my sculptures. My wife always jokes of my unique use of the English language. The names of my sculptures are an amalganation of words or definitions.

The Tree in the process.

Thank God for big equipment.

In place temporarily. I wanted to view the tree to see what the next step will be. My turn.

                            Love the texture.














Really love the rerod.

Pieper Sculpture Park

Curt's passion and Karen's inspiration

In 2010 my mother passed away.  She left me with a couple of outdoor sculptures.  I wasn't sure what  to do with them.  Eventually they ended up in the woods near my home.  Since that time, other pieces from different artist have found their home in the woods.

The mushrooms are sculptures that were specifically created for the place they now live.

I have always been fascinated with circles and spheres. They represent cycles, no beginning or end.
Life.  This piece is re-purposed concrete with a portal and a bird.  It is located in the field by the woods.

This is another re-purposed concrete sculpture.










Currently exhibiting works by: Curt Pieper, Kari Miller Fenwood, and Stu White.

Art Prize 2012

This is the inner mold.  Most of my time creating is spent in the mold making process.

This is my entry this year in Art prize.  Originally started as just a very cool table with no intention of entering Art Prize but it became more than just a table.  Not the first time.  My "look" is ever changing and still defining itself to me.

Art Prize entry

It's August and everything is going as planned.   This is a current pic.   Need to darken the concrete posts and add a 1" walnut frame around the main concrete frame.  Water feature (rain) works great and lights look fantastic.

 Experiment to get water to drip and not stream.

welcome to the new "Art & Process" blog for natural concrete Artistry!

Greetings, All,

With the total redesign of my website, naturalconcreteartistry.com/ now complete, I thought this would be a good time to establish a blog as a sort of online journal of how my designs evolve as well as create a place to discuss art and process and related subjects. It'll also keep you up-to-date on events, new product design releases and pretty much anything else that comes to mind....

Just as importantly, it's also a place to gather your feedback and commentary on design, process and concrete art in general so, feel free to post comments and questions.
