I’m so glad the untitled goose game has a two player option, but wouldn’t it be delightful chaos with three or four?

Mosstoads 🌿 Toads are looking to be adopted and hop into their new homes, go see them at nymla.se 🐸

What are suitable toad names? What would you name a toad? Perhaps, Bertram or Brynhilda? Apparently I think B is a toady letter, hmm...

Forgotten Fabric Scraps Find New Life as Charming Animal Sculptures

Artist Bryony Rose Jennings transforms forgotten fabric scraps into unexpected works of art. Like putting together a puzzle, she carefully chooses and stitches each textile scrap together until she creates a colorful animal sculpture. As a result, these whimsical handmade figurines are brimming with character.

Michael Quane at Solomon Fine Art

Last night, I attended the opening of Michael Quane's exhibition 'Belonging' at Solomon Fine Art, Balfe Street, Dublin 2 D02 T802. This event was packed. I had plenty of people to talk to. Michael had carved his sculptures in limestone and marble. His figurative pieces were full character and life. I loved his Nabresino Head Study carved from Nabresina- light limestone due to its simplicity and clean lines. To my eye, it appeared monumental and would suit being carved to a much larger scale. Other artworks that I liked included 'Taurus Bouyancy' and 'indigenous', both carved from Bordiglio marble, due to their smooth finish, rounded shapes and warm grey colour. I was fascinated to learn from Michael that some areas of a stone block are harder than others. One has to adapt to this variation of hardness in stone as one carves it. Michael's exhibition will run until 19th Oct 2024. It was well worth going.

Decorating with Hippo Sculptures: Enhancing Your Space

Introduction

Introducing hippo sculptures into your living space can add a touch of whimsy, elegance, and character. With Pangea Sculptures' collection of hippo sculptures, you can elevate your home decor with unique and captivating artistic creations that celebrate the beauty and charm of these magnificent animals.

The Charm of Hippo Sculptures

Understanding the Endearing Nature of Hippos

Hippos, with their round bodies, wide mouths, and stubby legs, exude a unique charm and character that captivates the imagination. Despite their imposing size and strength, hippos are often portrayed in art and literature as lovable and endearing creatures, beloved by children and adults alike. Hippo sculptures capture this playful and gentle spirit, adding a touch of whimsy and delight to any space.

What Hippo Sculptures Represent

In many cultures, hippos are symbols of fertility, protection, and maternal love. In ancient Egypt, the hippopotamus goddess Taweret was worshipped as a protector of women and children, while in African folklore, hippos are often associated with water, the source of life and renewal. Hippo sculptures carry these symbolic associations, serving as talismans of good fortune, prosperity, and maternal instincts.

Choosing the Right Hippo Sculpture for Your Space

Finding the Perfect Spot For Sculptures

Before incorporating a hippo sculpture into your decor, consider the size, style, and ambiance of your space. A larger sculpture may serve as a striking focal point in a living room or entryway, while smaller sculptures can add whimsy and charm to bookshelves, mantels, or side tables. Consider the overall aesthetic of your space and choose a sculpture that complements your existing decor and reflects your personal style.

Material Matters: Exploring Different Options

Hippo sculptures are available in a variety of materials, each with its own unique aesthetic and characteristics. Bronze sculptures exude warmth and richness, while stainless metal sculptures offer a sleek and contemporary appeal. Copper sculptures add a touch of rustic charm, while resin sculptures are lightweight and versatile. Consider the texture, color, and finish of each material and choose one that suits your preferences and complements your decor.
