lawooten Posted May 27, 2009 Share Posted May 27, 2009 The Wizard will go into our fossil wood forest with a dragon that I painted last year. I am thinking of putting the Indian in my vegetable garden or on the front porch. The best days are spent collecting fossils Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barefootgirl Posted May 27, 2009 Share Posted May 27, 2009 Oh my, those are so frigging cool! You should do a fairy next and then send it to me . No really you are a great artist!

Thanks I've done a dragon and a Easter Island statue. I want to do a female indian also. The Indian is about 5 foot three inches tall. The wizard is about three and a half feet tall.

lawooten Posted May 28, 2009 Author Share Posted May 28, 2009 The wizard will go with this dragon. The green one is the Easter Island statue and about three and a half feet tall. The place we bought it at has a Triceratops that is about five foot ten inches tall and about nine feet long. We wanted one but it was too big to put in our pickup.

Thank You, I would appreciate it! Oh wow, I would love that for my front flower garden! What are they made of and how much does one cost, if you don't mind me asking? Totally love that dragon by the way!!!!! In formal logic, a contradiction is the signal of defeat: but in the evolution of real knowledge, it marks the first step in progress toward victory.

I do not know the cost but I have to go back and will check on the prices when I go back there this month some time. I know they are made of cement and thick wire to give them stability and to cut down on weight. They make them right there so that the prices are better then others who would buy and re-sell them.

shorty Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 Easter Island stutue. I love that little guy! How did you get started with these? Which one was your first? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lawooten Posted May 29, 2009 Author Share Posted May 29, 2009 I love that little guy! How did you get started with these? Which one was your first? The first one was my Easter Island one. It looks great when the banana trees get larger behind it and a spot light. We sit by the pool at night and the highlighted statues look cool. I had planed on the Indian being between two large bushes as if he were walking out from behind them with a little light highlighting him but figure tropical would be better by the pool. The dragon came next to go with about 4000 pounds of fossil wood we have collected. Then Ernie wanted a wizard to go with the dragon. Next pick is mine and I would like to get an Indian Maiden if they have one big enough. They have another mean looking dragon I would like to have also to go by the walkway leading to the front door. I have cement chickens and pigs running all through my vegetable garden. The grand’s love coming over to check out what we have done next.

shorty Posted May 29, 2009 Share Posted May 29, 2009 The first one was my Easter Island one. It looks great when the banana trees get larger behind it and a spot light. He does look kind of jungle-y and unexepcted. You've found a great spot for him. By the pool sounds perfect! I'd love to put him along side of a path or somewhere kind of lush & overgrown looking. Plus he doesn't look too complicated to paint - more at my skill level! Your yard must look really neat at night with the lights on everything. I bet your grandkids love all the different things Plus a pool! What a fun place for them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe that the very large ones are around $300.00 and they are made of cement inforces by heavy wire.

Hawkeye Posted May 30, 2009 Share Posted May 30, 2009 I love that Easter Island statue. That would look great in the front hasta bed and probably ###### off all the neighbors!

megateeth Posted May 31, 2009 Share Posted May 31, 2009 WOW Those are wild. You did an amazing job of painting those. Very nice. I wonder how much it would cost to get them to do a 60 foot shark.
