Several years ago, I bought this beautiful, antique sculpture in weathered condition and always imagined it ‘’flying.’’  Once the structural repairs were complete, I painted the piece and had the cantilevered mounting system fabricated.  It was fun to use the giant, pink-granite ‘’U’’ that Lawry had given me as the foundation for the sculpture.  Happily enough, our early Spring weather allowed us to mount the piece, even before the garden blooms.

As you will see from the video …  “http://player.vimeo.com/video/38677742” … getting the sculpture from the ground to its ‘’flying place’’ was quite a job.  Many thanks to our terrific crew … Joe, William, Valeri and Lawry!
