sculpture in the vinyards

Ryan and I went up to take down the works that I had up there - from a distance they were ok but close up the wood had taken on water and split in some places - So it was a valuable lesson that no matter how many times you prime something water can still get in. It was the first time that I have had something outside this long - so it was good to see how things weathered and to learn what I would do differently for next time. Basically I need to find a material that I am happy to work with and thats ok to leave outside - I guess wood will always weather and need attention so will have to look at other alternatives for future projects.

Anyway here are some pics of the work before we took it down.
