crap and expensive at the same time!


Recommended Posts

If you think those works of art are expensive, you should have seen some of the offerings at the Chelsea flower show.

One exhibitor had made a horse out of what looked like bits of bark, sticks and the stuff you normally have lying around on a site after you have brought a tree down. Asking price £23,000

Check out a website by Heather Jansch , I think she is the originator of the driftwood / bone oak horse sculptures and they are very good indeed and very expensive ! She seems to have made good connections somewhere and these are now in art galleries and private collections around the world , good luck to her , but I think others would just like a share of such luck themselves ( not in a jealous way ! ) It may have been hard work making such connections , but that is how life works .

I looked at James doran webbs site and it is very impressive stuff , it would appear it is his stuff at chelsea , do people who pay such money for such things realise it's limited life span outdoors ? same for chainsaw carvings .. esp spalted beech . Heather jansch now has bronze casts of her work and this is very complex and expensive to do but most excellent though ! I now realise CFS is chelsea ...doh...!!!
