woodland trillium flowers

by

Trillium

These drops from the steel yard make the perfect trillium petals. They are pivoted slightly like a pinwheel. The pistil can be anything from the butt of a screw driver, a bearing, or a counter sink bit, just depends. I abstract the leaves using either stainless as elongated ones or fence scrap as short ones. Heights vary 3 to 3 1/2 feet tall.

Trillium Arts and Crafts Spectacular

I am happy to be showing at a holiday fundraiser for the Trillium Charter School.

Saturday, December 7th and Sunday, December 8th, 10-5pm.

“Artisans are donating 30% of their proceeds. These funds are used to purchase school supplies, sponsor programs, and provide classroom grants at Trillium Charter School. Free admission!

The school is handily located next to the Killingsworth MAX station, the Interstate Firehouse and Bus line 72. Parking is behind the school on Maryland Ave.”

I just finished this commission for a client’s landscaped garden. This will sit into the ground a bit to hold a slope back. There is a mesh tray a few inches down for a layer of decorative rocks. The metal flowers are recycled from a christmas tree water basin, and a parts cabinet.
They provided the pot, I provided the color. Thanks for a fun project.
