Installation of Sculptural Art Baskets at The Cliffs in Travelers Rest, South Carolina

Here are a few images from an installation I completed this week at a beautiful home at The Cliffs over in Travelers Rest, South Carolina, just south of Asheville and across the NC border.  These clients have been some of my most dedicated collectors and have the largest single collection of my work in the state of South Carolina. It's a pleasure to have such wonderful clients who celebrate my work and allow me the freedom to create unique pieces for their home.

The pieces above include my first ever fireplace mantel installation created for these folks several years ago.  The newest piece is featured on the sofa table; a collaboration between me and my friend Margie Bibb Johnson who's a ceramicist in Greenville, SC.

In this room, notice the fireplace mantel sculpture along with a tabletop sculpture, complete with my hand-hammered rhododendron leaves.

I created 4 bathroom sink baskets out of bark and copper to add some texture to the space.
