The Garden of Artists - Clock
Fillmore, Utah. The Garden of Artists series was photographed in Fillmore, Utah at the home of a deceased sculptor who mastered the materials of driftwood, lava rock and stone. Most of his stunning work was created while standing in his backyard under the tree shown in the first post.![]()
I am embarrassed to admit that I do not remember his name. Stumbling upon this wonderful home was a highlight of the trip. It included the pleasure of meeting his widow, who gave me a tour the grounds. She was so incredibly nice and friendly. I can’t believe their names are eluding me.
When shooting, I usually cover a great deal of material and ground over a very short period of time. To keep things straight, I verbally tag image files with details regarding the shots. For some reason, I have yet to find the audio files for this day.
I sincerely apologize for not being able to give credit to the artist and his wonderful wife. If you happen to read this and know more about this artist’s work, please contact me. I am a great admirer and had intended to properly showcase his work. The thumbnail (can click for larger version) is one of his grandfather clocks that’s for sale. Not much of a photo, but the magnificence of the clock hopefully makes up for it.
