Artist Comment

A beautiful carving for someone you love... or treat yourself! Suitable for indoors and looks sublime and otherworldly placed by a sunny window sill or where the light can filter through the semi translucent alabaster, revealing its soft cloud like qualities. I titled it LEMURIAN, after the Mythical fabled Land LEMURIA, that sunk beneath the Sea... as it seems quite magical and unearthly to me when the light dances on it.. sort of pulsing with an light energy. The photos don`t really do it justice, as alabaster is difficult to photograph. So HERE IS A LINK TO a short video of this piece with the light dancing THROUGH IT... LOOKS AMAZING!! https://youtu.be/wYdbpK1JmOA

  • 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.
