This collection of unique sculptures surprises us with its scale (tiny to immense), its unexpected locations, its uncanny realism, its skewed perceptions…and its sheer unclassifiability. Enjoy!

Wow!! They are amazing. That last one tugs at the heart!
Yeah, that’s why I put it last, Carolyn!
Wow to the nth.
WOW!! Love this, Mitch!
Wow! My immediate reaction was to think that art is the saving grace of humanity.
Awesome sculptures, Thank you for sharing, I hope you have a good weekend,
My pleasure, Rasma, and you too!
The teeny tiny characters small enough to fit inside the eye of a needle-AMAZING!
I really liked the horse made of driftwood, the giant in Italy, the failed experiment and the steel and scrape sculpture of the cowboy on the horse.
Very intriguing and inspiring Mitch!
It seems like your post is a coincidence to me. I say this because I was thinking about creating a sculpture myself yesterday. I may have to learn how to weld.
God Bless you and your family and have a nice weekend!
Thank you, Cora, you too!
As usual, you’ve found a wealth of amazing sculptures we can enjoy without leaving home. Thanks for sharing these, Mitch.
My pleasure, Annie.
Impressive! Thank you for sharing
My pleasure, Sylvie.
That’s quite a collection, Mitch! Sculptors are among my favourite artists. Their skills are mind boggling.
Amazing! What a lot of work to bring all those photos together. Thanks!
My pleasure. I do enjoy curating thematic galleries, Maddie.
Wow, thank you for that amazing gallery! Love the scrap sculptures, we have an amazing trash artist here in Portugal, Bordaloii is his name.
My pleasure, Anna. I really enjoy good scrap art too. I just took a look at some of Bordalo II’s work. Wow! Looks like he does a lot of 3D murals.
Yes he does, it´s amazing.
Stunning!
Fabulous gallery
Thanks, Sheree.
Pleasure

So glad you enjoyed it, Maria.
