My Recycled Art Work

I made this Rock Golem from some old Rocks that used to be a terrible 1980′s fire place that dominated a room in our house right up the the ceiling.

We have had the Rocks for years, when I got the idea to make some Garden ornaments to give some interest in my yard.

The Rock Golem is simply made from Recycle Rocks and cement nothing else, even the cement was recycled material by using odd bits of left over cement from work being done in my house

I found that a cement mix of 2 sand and 1 cement worked best (2-1).

After writing an article about Heather Jansch and admiring her art work of horses made from drift wood it inspired me to try and make something myself using recycle drift wood.

I’m lucky I live on the coast so I took a relaxing walk with my son to the beach where I found piece of driftwood and some other natural bits and pieces a few bird feathers and some shells

I wouldn’t know where to start on a large sculpture like the life size horses Heather Jansch Does, not to mention I wouldn’t have anywhere for a life sized driftwood horse in my home or very small garden, So I opted sensibly for a small drift wood sculpture.
