Mad Sunflower Creations is the more whimsical side of Collene Karcher's work. An avid gardener, these objects have been inspired by countless hours spent in her perennial garden digging, pondering and digging some more...
They too are hand crafted at her studio one at a time and include garden sculpture, garden benches, hand carved garden sinks, prints...
MORE COMING SOON!
Stonecarver Collene Karcher presents her cast stone, limited edition Garden Sculpture. Each piece is initially sculpted at her studio, Stone Crossing, located in the Smoky Mountains of Western North Carolina. A mold is then carefully made & a very small edition cast. Each sculpture is signed and numbered by the artist on its reverse side.
Designed for indoor as well as outdoor use they can be tiled into a walkway or stone wall, displayed on a mantel, or nestled amongst garden flowers.
Hand-smithed steel easels are available for most pieces.
