concrete fence no2

27 comments


ive been planning this for two years . first I bought some Perspex off of ebay to sandwich in between each side of the cement . this is to stop the dogs getting into my part of the garden but still give the open appearance . I also broke up the edge to lose the Perspex as much as possible . I was only going to do one side but when I went to prop the rest of the room up with the 4″ × 4″ it didn’t look right so as I had some metal left I added to the other side for support and asthetics . its not finished yet as I have left 6 spaces for future sculptures . I used Perspex so I could drill and wire together all the components before cement coverd it all up . I hope you like it as much as my older round shape concrete fence .

You are one of a kind NP - its brilliant! Not sure why you've given Tree Man an emetic though...

29 May, 2015

 

thank you melch . is that a complement stera ? lol and what is an emetic ?

29 May, 2015

 

Great artwork NP. What is an emetic? For me an emetic would either be hummus or kidney in onions.

thanx ls and thanx for telling me what an emetic is though I don't know how that's in context with my tree man .

30 May, 2015

 

I think it's because he looks as if he could be regurgitating his plants! (An emetic is something that makes you sick!)

ow I see melch well that's brilliant as that's just what I wanted lol .

30 May, 2015

 

Job done then, Leigh!

(I should have added that an emetic is used like a medicine - it's not just something that gives you an upset stomach!)

30 May, 2015

 

I see he does look like he needs it lol .

30 May, 2015

 

He looks a bit distressed, admittedly, but I rather like him!

Being a tree man I thought he had a green beard. Easy to paint it another colour but green is more appropriate, to use a currently part misused word appropriately rather than inappropriately or whatever. Love the support to your canopy. The concrete settee looks soooo cosy as well.
