Snake Sky won an honorable mention at an art center competition. The piece measures 15 inches across, is set in a loose cement mixture, and is extremely sensuous. An actual snake skin found in Stone County winds through the piece and has begun to skeletonize. Rusting barbed wire arches across the top of the piece. An arrowhead and feathers are included along with a plastic moon and sparkling stars (which indeed sparkle when candle light strikes them). This primitive landscape needs protection from the elements.

Raku Night was included in the 2009 Governor's Mansion Association Calendar and also in the 2008 Celebrating Arkansas Artists Exhibit in Senator Pryor's Rivermarket office. The piece is actually a triptych, and currently hangs as such in its new home in a private residence in Little Rock. However, when the deadline came to enter it into the competitions, I was refiring one piece, so only had these two parts for the image. I'm so glad it won anyway!

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 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.

Pregnant Woman is a clay sculpture that measures about 5 X 3 X 3 and weighs a pound. After the initial high firing, the stomach was wrapped in horsehair, then the piece was smoked in a metal can filled with sawdust and newspapers. Once cooled, the sculpture was waxed.

Mirrored Lady is a sculpture of fired clay 3 inches high and 3 inches wide that rests of a beveled mirror. Classical in design, she could could fill a small space perfectly.

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.

This fabulous table also represents the unique, signature-style mosaic work of Stone County Art. While Lee designs this furniture to withstand the elements in the out of doors, she has discovered that collectors often take these striking pieces of functional art into their homes to serve as centerpieces. Moose Table stands 19 inches tall with a 24 inch square top.

The Celebrating Iris Table is a 17 inch concrete mosaic square atop a 17 inch high, custom forged, dark green metal stand. The top features hand made tessera by other Arkansas artists plus sea glass from Los Angeles, a silver spoon Lee gathered during her travels to Peru, sunflower and greenery tile she bought in Australia and broken cottage dinnerware from her first marriage 35 years ago.

Grape leaf imprints from the family vineyard are combined with green stained glass and large clear marbles to create this functional work of art. It should last, whether used outdoor or as an entry piece, for generations to come. It is made from hand-cast concrete, is 40 inches long, 18 inches deep, and stands 24 inches tall.

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.

Question Authority is 6 inches wide and 8 inches high. Set in unusually smooth cement, it features a political button from the 60's era which reads "Question Authority" which is surrounded by hog nose rings.

Moon Bluff is 11 inches high, 9 wide and 1 1/2 thick. It has a profoundly primitive sense to it as concrete, rocks, shells and a bit of glitter combine into an ancient landscape.

Military Intelligence is 13 inches across. This Stone Scape© features a political button from the 60's which reads "Military Intelligence is a contradiction in terms". The top of the piece is surrounded by rusting barbed wire and it contains an actual snake skin found in Stone County.

Made from a cement mixture, this bowl measures 10 inches across and about 3 inches high. It features native Arkansas stones. The deep swirls represent the movment of water flowing over and around the rocks and the earth. It is designed for use indoors or out.
