< Hear Me Roar
This life-sized moose has surprising details that causes many to stop and study it with amazement. The landscape within is comprised from layers of metal to create a foreground or trees and background of mountains and is accented with glass aspen leaves and a blue moon. If you look even closer, there is even a tiny skier on the slope!
The Wild Life >
This grizzley will stop people in thier tracks as he stands over eight feet tall! This piece truly showcases the beauty of the different textured finishes on the surfaces of the aluminum layers of metal.
Divine Intersections
This eleven foot cross was crafted of three layers, stained wood, polished aluminum and steel finished with a bronze coating. The result of this combination is
a trifecta!
Sondra had fun creating characters for "Oz Park"
< HAVE A HEART >
This tin man has a fused glass heart and bow tie, sand-blasted wood graining on the axe handle and is topped with a smoking hat! Take note of this modern and creative interpretation of a beloved literary character.
Dorothy >
The exquisite textures on Dorothy is an unmistakable characteristic of Sondra's work, down to the detailing of the basketweave. Her shoes or made of kiln-formed glass, accented with a special dichroic or metallic glass that sparkles!
TURKEY TROT
This collection of sculptures included several life-sized turkeys and a mountain lion on the prowl. Installed at a pedestrian area of a mall, planted to match the natural habitat of these animals. Shoppers enjoy discovering the different creatures as they pass by.
THE GIVING TREE
Habitat for Humanity in greater Los Angeles, California commissioned several donor recognition sculptures. Each tree boldly displays the corporate names of donors for several communities of new homes. Parks in the new neighborhoods are now home to the installations. Powder coated aluminum gives the visual appearance of copper and copper verdigris.
RIPPLE EFFECT
A contemporary living space was the perfect fit for these wall sculptures. This triptych is comprised of sculptures with multiple layers of polished aluminum, the background layer being hand painted in a blend of vibrant colors.
ASIAN GARDEN
This customer's garden has a very "Zen" feeling and they desired pieces to reflect an Asian influence. The two welded stands hold large circular, kiln formed "irid" glass with a metallic look, but maintain transparency to allow light
to shine through.
THIS IS A GREAT PLACE FOR YOUR TAGLINE.
PROVISION
Sondra can design and create sculptures to fit custom spaces and specialized themes. These peepers made a bold statement in this optometrist's office.
FOLLOW THE LEADER
This fun life-sized street-scape scene depicts a hunter and his dog marveling at the beauty of the glass and aluminum pheasant. Those that walk by are also impressed when they discover it moving in the breeze.
POPS OF COLOR
This customer was seeking immediate privacy from an adjacent property, but did not own the fence. The sculptures are attached to "invisible" frames, appearing to hang on the fence. A beautiful solution!
ROOTED IN JOY
This stunning 10' joyful tree is made of four sections of polished aluminum trunk and tree branches that converge in the center. Colored acrylic leaves glow in ultraviolet light during the day and incandescent light by night.
This aluminum and glass combo was customized to fit an outdoor kitchen bar. The result was perfect piece for this outdoor space, with cool blues like that of the swimming pool alongside the kitchen area. The fish shapes were inspired by the customer's love for their fish ponds in the gardens.
SUSHI BAR
UPSCALED FAMILY CIRCLE
The CEO of a local non-profit requested an upscaled version of Sondra's "Family Circle" table top sculpture for their newly remodeled building, in place of a donor wall. Bent, welded and polished aluminum make up the figures. Glass tiles create the floor of the pedestal with reproduced artwork painted and drawn by the organization's young clients. A giant kiln-formed glass heart was made with layers of crushed glass.
EVERY WHICH WAY
Aluminum, copper & glass was utilized to fashion this sculpture, making it a spectacular centerpiece for this office space.
Sondra incorporated the symbolism of arrows pointing in all directions to reflect corporate movement and to symbolize the "head hunter" firm.
PRIVATE WOODS
This client desired privacy as well as visual space, while maintaining a beautiful view from the kitchen window. These aluminum "Private Woods" panels did just the trick and will last for many years outdoors.
KOI POND
This multilayered aluminum & glass sculpture was fashioned and molded around the corner of a pool house, viewable from many angles. Sondra is great at perfectly customizing art for each space and customer!
GARDEN SCULPTURES
Sondra has created many beautiful sculptural structures for public and private gardens over the years. Displayed here, are a series of coordinating pieces that were made of copper and aluminum.
UNWIND
This figurative sculpture depicting
a fly fisherman is surrounded by
glass and aluminum cattails,
catching a colorful kiln-formed
glass trout. The installation
portrays the sportsman wading through water and rock.
WOVEN TOGETHER
This arial sculpture was created for a multi-generational and multicultural church. Figures representing their members joined by a ribbon throughout a modern cross were requested for this beautiful
aerial sculpture .
CALLA LILY VINE
This piece elegantly combines aluminum and glass. Partially sculpted on site to perfectly fit the space, it meanders around the light fixture.
Starting from the upper floor, this
sculpture guides the viewer all the
way to the lower level.
