Handmade Planters & Pots
Living Artworks
This is a new found love of mine, taking outdoor building materials and combining them into structural, functioning planters, utilitarian artworks that I have loosely coined, 'Living Artworks'. I want to create something that can both function and add a unique flare to your home, outdoor space and garden. The phrase I keep in my mind as I am designing, constructing and planting these Living Artworks, is 'My Favorite Thing I've Never Had', the Utilization of each piece or pair of artworks combined with easy care plants that surround you in your home and garden.
The above work, a set of three, is a new work for Eagle Construction's Conference Room. Other pairs and pieces were constructed for different purposes and needs. Hand-built and sculpted, a mixed media of sorts, this is a large set three mortar and patina graced with gorgeous white Orchids and Ferns . Due to the nature of the materials and the consideration of the spaces per design, each planter or pot takes on its own work becoming a one of a kind.

Tall White Cylinder/Sculptural Flowing Pair with Heat Loving Plants
Feminine/Masculine Pair
Highly Sculptural Tall White staggered pair of Outdoor Planters. These are just gorgeous and look great wherever I've staged them for photographing. I filled them with cool hues of late summer heat thriving plants. From tallest to lowest, 'Baby Moses' Umbrella Grass, Rosemary shrub/herb, American Agave Cacti, Ajania pacifica, Dichondra 'Silver Falls', Blue Spruce Sedum.
I'm really excited about how these function and work together. It was fun to play around with the space between them and the way they interact with one another with the feminine and masculine details, the smaller coming forward a bit allowed them to nicely fit in a corner or small space, yet they are so bold, especially with this planting combination, that they could hold their own in an open area as a focal point.

Additional Information
Set of Outdoor Bowls, Planters, Original Sculptural One of a kind set of three heavy duty bowls for use as planters or actual bowls for cut arrangements, outdoor decor, or even gorgeous just empty.
This is a new endeavor for me and a new found love of taking outdoor building materials, not just cement and sand, concrete, but all sorts of materials combine to make up these utilitarian art pieces. I want to create something that can both function and add uniqueness to your home and garden. These can be used as planters (I can drill drain holes or leave them solid), or actual bowls that could hold water for mixed floral arrangements, fruit bowls, anything you can think of to turn your outdoor space into a conversation piece.
These are the set to talk about with the mix and look of heavy durable concrete to light, cozy feeling of a textural blanket, hence the title 'Blanket Bowls'. They are surprisingly lightweight and will last for years outdoors. Probably the more you protect them from winter elements, the longer they will last, but I would love to see them with an outdoor patina of liken or moss as they age, especially if used as planters. They look great either way.
This is a set, but if you are interested in only one, I might consider. Just ask.
I would consider them large in scale and one could stand alone on a table setting. You could separate them as well on side tables, etc. If using for a party or outdoor dinner.
These are one of a kind, unique plant pots, outdoor pots and concrete garden pots
