OFF THE WALL

Randy Leibowitz Dean - OFF THE WALL!

OFF THE WALL -
From paintings created on wood, carved and hung on the wall to plywood sculpture! I've had ideas for sculpture for years but, it's not until I purchased my first angle grinder (and learned how to use it) was I able to put those ideas into reality.

Impressions of “Vision in the Drapery” Sculpture

A group of children were given the image of this sculpture via email and asked to write a story or poem based on what they see in the art.  Seven of the children’s writings are displayed with the sculpture.
As always, with children I am amazed at their impressions, stories and imagination.
