Wall Art, Secret Cove Style

When most people think of wall art, they visualize paintings.  Before discovering dimensional  wall art, that was our view of wall art.  Our home was decorated throughout with framed, two- dimensional art works.  About 20 years ago, we were introduced to a sculptor who created three-dimensional wall art made of steel, brass and copper.  Upon seeing this work, we were completely captivated by the textures and shapes of this new wall art medium.  Unlike framed art, metal wall art introduces new shapes that add a sense of drama to a home.  More importantly,  metal wall art introduces a new interplay of light and shadow that changes over the course of the day as the sun changes position and in the evening when the interior lights are turned on.  Perhaps you have never noticed, but most homes and offices are dominated by right angles created by doors, windows, and rectangular walls.  Framed art reinforces these angles, whereas dimensional wall art breaks up this strict geometric discipline to introduce more life and emotion into the interior environment.  For many of us, dimensional wall art takes the edge off of a very structured space, rendering it more enjoyable, relaxing and livable.
