Sculptures for Your Landscape

Have you ever thought about adding sculptures to enhance your landscape? The options are many when it comes to landscape sculptures. They can add an attractive compliment to your scenery and they are available in a variety of designs, sizes and materials. You can create an inviting atmosphere for your landscape that will flow into your home design depending on your choice.

Materials for Sculptures

Stone Sculptures

Stone sculptures can give visitors an element of surprise while adding a touch of elegance to your landscape. Stone sculptures can be made from soapstone, alabaster, limestone, marble or granite. These types of sculptures are understated yet classical and because of the various stone varieties are available in a large range of colors.

Metal Sculptures

Metal sculptures can create a sophisticated or mysterious look to your landscape. They can be made from bronze, copper, brass, iron or steel. When you purchase a metal sculpture or metal water fountain for outdoor use, be sure to advise the art gallery or the company you are purchasing the metal outdoor sculpture from that it is for outdoor use. They can adapt the sculpture and coat it to protect it from the elements.

Glass Sculptures

Glass sculptures can bring a unique charm and whimsy to your landscape as glass will sparkle with shimmer or shine when the sun hits it. Image how beautiful a glass sculpture would look if it were trimmed with a metal frame or contained metal accent pieces.

All of these materials have been used by artist throughout the centuries to create beautiful pieces of artwork that can be enjoyed for generations to come. You can enhance your sculpture by adding a water component to it to create a beautiful fountain. Make sure you are aware that adding a water element is beautiful but over time the minerals from the water can change the color of some materials.

The great thing about sculptures is that they can represent many different aspects of cultures, traditions or represent something you cherish. Your sculpture selection will be unique to your own taste and you will gaze at its beauty every day. Make sure you choose a piece you love.
