Lip Service

Texas Pecos (red) sandstone + Texas limestone

© 2005 Kelly Borsheim

 

    I have had many requests to make more lips -- the original I did many years ago still gets noticed, even though it sold immediately.  This mixed stone composition is more symmetrical due to the lines in the stone. I included a top view of the sculpture because you can see the concentric rings around each "point" on the upper lip. Nice detail.

     I was not sure what title to give this composition.  Lip Service was a suggestion by someone on my art newsletter subscription list.  Another possible title:  Service with a Smile.  Very different ideas:  As YOU like.  hahaha. 

    The red stone of the lips is from a Texas quarry. Several people I spoke with differed on whether or not it is sandstone or limestone, but here in Texas it is marketed and sold as Pecos sandstone.  I was told that the pieces of Pecos that I bought and carved came from a dismantled or renovated West Texas courthouse.  The base with the tie is a Texas creme limestone. The stones have been joined with a stainless steel pin, so rust is not a problem. This artwork may be displayed indoors or outdoors. Or, if you just like the lips, the pin may be secured to any other base or just a rock.. or removed to set flat on a table. I hope you enjoy.

Thank you for visiting my site and I appreciate your comments, and your sharing.
