Lifesize female naked body garden statue, created in a classical style with Greek marble. For display indoors or outdoors, created by the wonderful sculptress Sherry Tipton, who adds….
“Eleni” is, very simply, a beauty piece, carved in Greece in the summer of 2018 and inspired by a wonderful model. The marble is from the island of Thassos and for some reason, strikes me as a feminine stone. My original plan had her hair cascading in front, but I changed the design to expose the lovely line of her neck. Another change was caused by the discovery of an inclusion in the stone, exactly on her right eye. I was able to move everything slightly to avoid the flaw.

- The ArtParkS Guarentee
All the sculptures on the website are described by the Artists themselves stating the materiel they are made from and their dimensions. If they are stated to be suitable for outdoors they have a guarentee of 10 years subject to the effects of weathering which will alter their colour and finish over the years unless you give them regular cleaning and maintenance. For instance Bronze and to a lesser extent bronze resin/cold cast bronze will aquire a green patina, usually rather sought after and all could attract moss lichen and a greeny pollen especially under trees which should be removed regularly with warm water and washing up liquid.
Iron and steel will oxidise(rust ) and this falls outside our guarentee.
Organic materiel like wood, bark willow is variable and depends to a great extent on where it is sited and you should discuss any guarentee direct with the Artist as this too falls outside our Guarentee. - How does ArtParkS protect you?
From the moment you place an order and pay ArtParkS you are protected, because half is immediately used to pay the Artists deposit and the other half is retained till the sculpture is delivered safely’.
