Martini Man
How cool would this man of steel (and concrete and glass) look standing outside
near your barbeque area or on the corner of your deck? Or maybe as an entry piece
to your game room or den? He stands 28 inches high, is 18 wide and 18 deep.
The dark-blue stemware of his martini glass is a luscious female nude.

Martini Woman
Does she not look like she's at the perfect summer cocktail party? This elegant lady of
concrete, metal and glass would be a superb addition to any outdoor area, or to the right interior.
She stands 28 inches high, is 16 wide and 16 deep. The dark-blue stemware of her
martini glass features an intriguing male nude.

Go Ask Alice
This Mad Hatter stands 41 inches tall. Genuine rose-gold filled wire lines his
psychedelic eyes and sprouts into whiskers around his face. Tiles and numerous found items
decorate the Styrofoam core covered with fiberglass, acrylic latex, cement and sand.
While created to withstand the outside elements, Go Ask Alice would make an exceptional
entry way into a game room or a home theater. Drop an email if you would like to see
images of his large cotton tail of clear marbles or close ups of his extraordinary eyes.

Pregnant Woman Yips! It Up
This Primitive Woman is 20 inches tall and 20 deep. This joyful creation of metal, concrete and
coloring is flat on the back, very fat in the front, and embedded in a hexagonal stand. She features
a natural river rock for her heart.

You Look Marvelous!
This Primitive Woman looks like she's ready to dance the night away with her dramatic swirls
and curves. Constructed of found wood, concrete, resins, and metal, she stands 24 inches tall
and weighs about 52 pounds.

Brown Butt on Rust
This is one of my favorite Primitive Women: she also placed in a recent art center
competition. I use this image as my screen saver and get an inner grin
every time I come to my computer (you are welcome to do the same!). She is made from a brake rotor
and concrete, is 10 inches tall, and weighs a surprisingly heavy 30 pounds. Placed on a Lazy-Susan,
it is possible to enjoy her from every angle.

Fossil Stone
A gorgeous fossil stone from our place is embedded in concrete and stands
10 inches tall, 14 wide, and 4 thick. It is a free-standing piece, weighing 28 pounds.
With the bottom lined in soft felt, it could be used indoors as a book end or shelf piece
as well as being placed outdoors along the pathway into your home.

| Primitive Woman
These hanging Primitive Women are one of my best-selling sculptures.
I make them, one at a time, all slightly different, from hyper-tufa, a light cement-based
mixture which withstands freeze-thaw cycles, and over time develops a soft patina, making
them appear ancient. They are hanging pieces, meant to be used outdoor on a tree or a deck,
yet I have heard of some being used indoor in a study. In size, they measure from
10 to 16 inches tall. Most of these Primitive Women wear some sort of jewelry, such
as raw crystals, sea shells, teeth or bones.

| Family Sculptures
Family sculptures depicting groups of two, three, and four are shown below
(other numbers welcome by custom order). Each free-standing piece, which measures about 5 inches
tall, 8 wide and 3 deep, is carved one at a time from a
variety of cement-based mixtures, and is appropriate for
both interior and exterior use. The rough texture adds to the primitive feel of the work.

A Goddess for Every Garden
Pieces in Lee's Goddess for Every Garden series remain one of Stone County
Art's best sellers. Each Goddess is unique and hand-made, with the receptive,
holding space carefully shaped one at a time. They range in size from 6 to 18 inches.
Try one both indoors and out to
find her right spot, where she can remind us all of the wisdom and strength
of the feminine from the earliest of times to the present. Several examples of
these Goddesses are pictured below.

Peas of Mind
Isn't that what we're all wanting, bottom line? This reminder is carved from a special
cement-based mixture which is equally suited for indoor or outdoor use. However, the peas
(which are from our own garden) might mold and need to be replaced if you leave
this little guy out in your flowerbed or by your back door during the rains. Each of these
little hang-carved sculptures is about 7 inches tall.

"And" Bench
The "And" Bench is hand-cast concrete, designed in 3 pieces for easier handling.
The mosaic top of weather-resistant materials invites us to consider inclusions and combinations as
land, sea, and sky are all represented. Used outdoors or as an entry piece, the "And" Bench can
provide both beauty and function for generations.

Primordial Table
Primordial Table (top only shown - 17 inches square) is an inlaid concrete mosaic top on a black, recycled metal
frame with a swivel top and bottom shelf underneath for additional storage. The concrete mosaic
top utilizes stained glass to depict an ancient scene of a woman standing by a lake and mountain under
a star-lit sky with a swirling moon. In either a garden or an indoor setting, this piece can provide
both beauty and function for countless years to come.

Fans and Fishes Table
The Fans and Fishes Table is a 17 inch concrete mosaic square on a custom made
deep brown metal table 17 inches high. It features a large metal fan and 2
complimentary fish tiles Lee bought during her 2002 trip to Australia. It would look
gorgeous and hold up well indoors or out.

Grape Leaf Imprint Bench
This Grape Leaf Imprint Bench measures 40 inches long, 24 inches tall
and 18 inches deep. It is hand-cast concrete made in a hand-made form.
Grape leaves from the small family vineyard were imprinted into the wet
concrete to provide the decoration, and the family cat Ten Four decided to
include himself in this image. This piece was designed in 3 parts to make
handling easier. Constructed for outdoor use, it should provide both beauty
and function for countless generations to come with no care requirements.

In addition to the pieces shown here, many of the Stone Scapesİ
and most of the Connecting Stonesİ, Memory Stonesİ, and Single Surface
Stones are suitable for outdoor use.
