The Design Process and Materials |
|
|
| Working for 26 years in close contact with art
collectors, designers and architects, Laurie Fowler and Bill Thelen
specialize in site-specific commissions. The form,
rhythm, dimension and contrast of
materials in their work reflect their creative fascination with vibrant
color, textural variation and strong movement.
Using a variety of techniques, their sculptural works are created on welded steel structures, shaped canvas and wood panels. The finished surfaces incorporate steel, brass, copper textural acrylic painting, suede and fiber elements. Working directly on canvas, wood and steel armatures ensures exceptional durability, minimal maintenance and ease of installation while allowing the artists a unique exploration of the sculptural form. Drawing from a background of both art and architecture, scaled elevations and renderings of proposed works can be provided along with color samples for limited edition pieces and commissioned originals. Delivery time is based on size and current studio schedule. |
