Cloth resin garden sculpture

Cloth resin is an interesting material for garden sculpture and ornament. It has the life and vibrance of fabrics combined with the durability of resin. Cloth resin is not one of the traditional materials for garden sculpture – but we live in a new age – so why not experiment with new materials?

Jo Ansell stone sculptures – Hampton Court Flower Show 2010 garden product review

Jo Ansell stone sculptures

We liked Jo Ansell’s work and also her clear statement of her approach to garden sculpture “My Sculptures embody the feminine, her moods, sensuality, purity and charm. Elements of nature are apparent within the forms and limbs often become origins of a flowing line or swirl. For me, carving in stone heightens the organic nature of my designs. There have been no definable influences on my style only my own growth and awareness. Because of this my designs are constantly changing and evolving. To capture the female and her ‘inner being’ in her many emotive states, along with her relationship with nature has always been my inspiration and motivation.”

Orangutans in garden design

I have never really felt the need for Gorillas in my garden. But there must be many people who have, because this statue is shown year after year at the Chelsea Flower Show. Were I to be given one as a birthday gift, I would place it in a thicket and use clippers to keep open a vegetated window for occasional viewing.

Tom Stogdon stone garden sculpture and ornament

Tom Stogdon is a London-based sculptor with a special interest in garden design. His initial training and work was in stone carving and letter cutting. This led him to a broader interest in stone, in the way it is washed by water and in the ways in which water-washed stones can be utilized in garden sculpture.
