    Art sure comes in many forms.  This particular piece was made from chainlinks in mult-colors.  The ground was the the canvas which at the time seemed like a great idea. The artist should have made sure the canvas was ready for the masterpiece by applying material to block weed and grass. By the time I saw the masterpiece it was obvious some steps were not taken because grass had practically covered the piece of work. 03/04/2012

Wordless Wednesday|All Alone I saw this silo on my way back from a closing yesterday, and it got my attention because it was all alone in a field. I suspect at one time it was once surrounded by other buildings, and grains and feed was stored there. Now it stands all alone in this field with just weeds, and invasive vines around. Hopefully in business you are not standing alone but rather surrounding yourself with a network. I suspect for members of ActiveRain standing alone is not an option.     01/25/2012

Yes, the park is becoming a wedding destination. Maybe you are not planning to have a wedding reception here but you can certainly pack a picinic basket, wear sensible footwear, and I can assure you you will have a great t... 09/19/2010

This is Susanna another sculpture by Phillip Grausman on display at the OMI location in Ghent NY. I must admit I thought she was a boy, maybe because of the way the hair was pulled back as well as the profile. What do I see?  A person who is shy but is placed in a spot where people gawk, and this makes her uncomfortable. I love the arts, however I first like to come up with my intrepretation of the piece before finding out what the artist intrepretation is. So what do you see when you look at this sculpture of Susanna?

With nose in the air I can see why she would think she is queen of this field; and we should not forget it.  So where is this anyway? This is at the Field Sculpture Park in Ghent NY. This scuplture is called Victoria  and is the work of Phillip Grausman. The park is made up several fields, this particular field has three heads, Victoria is the tallest, and with that profile looks like the queen. Visiting this park is well worth a trip, the sculptures on display are each rather unique. Stay tune for more photos over the next few weeks.   Update*** this sculpture is Victoria not Susanna   www.jfivehomes.com  or www.midhudsonhomevalue.com   Flickr | Facebook | Linked-in |Twitter |subscribe to Blog   Copyright © by Jennifer Fivelsdal, all rights reserved-Speechless Sunday-I am Queen Of Thi... 09/05/2010
