Hi MayB

I enjoyed this year's sculptures and glad I mastered the business of being able to post pictures. Which one was your friends?

hi Jo

This sculpture exhibition really marks the beginning of summer here in Sydney. It was started by a guy, I think he was a lawyer travelling through Europe, who was impressed with the art that was found in breath-taking locations, so he came back to Sydney to do the same. The works are situated along the coast on bluffs and beaches and I think the whole organisation is predominantly financed by both sponsorship and selling the works. There's always a tremendous range of work in various media. My favourite work was from a couple of years ago. It was a magnificent and enormous timber horse, rearing up with magnificent and ferocious energy, and it was positioned right in the middle of Tamarama Beach. It was quite breath-taking. This year that massive scaffold wave really stands out for quite a distance along the coast. I'm surprised the Sculpture By The Sea people haven't ventured up to Queensland yet: they now have a couple of events in Sydney and do something similar down on the Tasman Peninsula in Tasmania (which is a breath-taking region with lush farmland and a cliff-lined coast).
