Ice Flame at sunsetby ~sculptin

Traditional Art / Sculpture / Abstract

Ice sculpture carved for the Sherwood Park, Alberta New Years Eve festival. I didn't know what to carve. The sculpture was to be placed by a large campfire pit. Hence I carved a flame. It stands 9ft tall.

A flama made in ice... Interesting... Spiritual...

Nice! Did you piece it together with separately carved chunks? The lines in the ice look as though you did, but it looks great, nonetheless!

I love the setting as well.

This sculpture is made from 2 blocks of ice, that I cut into pieces, stacked, froze together, then carved out the shape.

Truly elegant ice sculpture and I commend you for your enchanting work. It's very mesmorizing.

At you delightful works, and very much nace gallery... I have received great pleasure from viewing..
To create from ice... O, my God, it is fine...
In it there is something from the Buddhism, I speak about fragility. To create and understand, that it will disappear... To know it, but to create...
Magnificent works....

Yes there is a buddist element to ice and snow sculpture. Do you know the Tibetan sand mandalas?, same theory, work very very hard to make something that will only last for a brief moment in time. Thank you for this wonderful comment.
