Shawn Tyler Art Dance 'Stone' Sculpture Brutalist Cubist Modern
This sculpture, made out of 'cultured stone' (which is a fancy way of saying cementious concrete) stands about 15.5 inches tall including the base. Both base and dancer are made out of concrete, It looks and feels like real stone. I love concrete or I should say cement, I used cement and added some different types of aggregate. It is a lovely, thoroughly modern sculpture, I used cement stain to get it the nice charcoal color. I prefer a bit of a satin finish but if you buff it it will become more shiny. I will gladly ship overseas, please contact me for shipping cost to your country

I have been doing sculpture in different media for around 20 years and focusing more on woodwork lately. My specialty is carved wood furniture, ceramic flowers and now I'm starting to make some unique lighting fixtures/chandeliers.
I have a bachelor's degree in Business and am widely traveled, and have lived overseas in many countries so I have seen many different forms of artwork worldwide.
I was previously known as an electronics technician so I am beginning to add lighting to some of my projects. I am attempting to create a niche with custom music stands and carved end tables. I am skilled at cabinetmaking but prefer to make sculptural furniture, things with curves are much easier for me to make somehow. A few of the artists and woodworkers I consider to be strong influences in my life include Sam Maloof, Wendell Castle and Isamu Noguchi.
