Description
DETAIL VIEW of:
"The River's Edge" Mixed media wall sculpture, (wire, fiberglass, plaster, fiber, broken glass & a whole mess of paint) 6 ft by 3 ft
This was a piece I got to do for the coolest restaurant in Anchorage, Alaska called "The Bridge". They converted the oldest bridge, which was the only way to enter into Anchorage years ago, into this fantastic restaurant that was over the still running Ship Creek
The original is obviously sold, but I do similar work if you are interested! Just about any size, color, form (abstract or real) Just send me an email if you're interested: mrshappy@live.com =]

wonderful, is it casting ?
Leslie Rhoades replied:
Hi, & thank you! No it wasn't casted. I started with a wire mesh frame, then built up the surface & texture with Bondo & fiberglass, then painted it, crushed glass & bonded it onto the piece. I wanted to mimic the river flowing & used the colors of the restaurant. It was pretty cool. =] Took forever, but I had fun doing it!
