The Three Pillars

This piece had the longest gestation of any of my Aviaries.  I keep boxes of interesting bits in my workshop, hoping that someday inspiration will come to me.  These plaster columns and lintels are the remains of a large sculpture I made circa 1984, with design details swiped from the great temple at Karnak, in Egypt.   The background is a hand-made print entitled The Garden of Eden, by my late mother-in-law, surrealist artist Janet Krieger.
