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.












The Queen

The Queen is a large woman: 25 inches tall, 21 wide, about 17 deep. Made primarily from structural wire and hypertufa, she weighs around 70 pounds. She holds a natural river rock, and teeth adorn her neck. She could strike a commanding pose from the rear of flower beds or in entryways.








Stone County 6

Stone County 6 is a mixed media piece approximately 19 inches high, 19 deep and 13 wide. The sculpture is primarily of hypertufa, an extremely light concrete mixture which withstands extremes of temperature well. Over time, hypertufa develops a soft patina.









The First Madonna

Strong, simple, calm and receptive, this Primitive Woman is 20 inches tall and weighs about 55 pounds. She is constructed of structural metal, color, and hypertufa. Mother of pearl shells line line her hollow, into which rests a large natural crystal.









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.







African Woman

I have yet to get a decent image of this series I call African Women, but I swear to you, in person they look great! I make them from hyper-tufa, a light cement based mixture which withstands all 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. Two of many are shown here.

African Strength

In this piece, the upper body of an African Woman is blended with the solidness of a stronger cement mixture to create a free-standing sculpture. Even if left outdoors year round, it is a virtually indestructible piece of original art. African Strength measure about a foot high, and is 13 inches wide and 4 deep.








Primitive Woman with Snake

Primitive Woman with Snake is mixed media piece combining actual snake skins, clay, wire, and native rocks in a special cement base. As in nature, the snake arising from her hollow is actually shedding. She is suitable for the garden or deck, and measures 15 inches high, 16 across and about 14 high.







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.






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.
