Built to last and to weather beautifully, this outdoor art piece will impress anyone who revels in nature’s amazing creations, no matter how big or small. Handmade in Arizona.

    location

    Arizona

    I started out from my garage. As the business grew, and my wife’s and neighbors' patience stretched, it was time to move to an industrial space. There I can bang and grind at all hours of the night. It's 1,000 square feet of pure metalworking nirvana.

    Chris Crooks took a winding road to get to where he is now—creating imaginative lawn sculptures inspired by the Southwest landscape he calls home. After graduating from the Art Institute of Philadelphia, Chris worked in advertising, then ran a printing business with his wife, while painting during his free time. It was when the couple moved to Tucson that Chris collaborated with a metal art manufacturer and fell in love with the art form. He now designs and creates sculptures in his studio at the foot of the Santa Rita Mountains. "I always wanted to make a living doing something genuinely enjoyable," he says. "To get up in the morning raring to go, and never having enough time to do everything you want to do."

    Beautiful sculpture. Arrived very well packaged. Easy to place in the surrounding woodlands with enclosed steel pegs. Very sturdy. Gave as an anniversary present and it was a huge hit, my husband loved it!

    My whale garden rock needed a tail. I am still working on the garden edging and the white rocks on his back will be removed, but you can see the tail works perfectly!

    Perfect size…not too big that it would overtake the landscaping

    This whale tail is a stunning addition to a yard, by a pool, or in a flower bed. But it's such a work of art that you might just display it as a sculpture inside the house. It's beautiful at a distance, but come closer to see all the sealitfe that the tail holds. A work of art and heart.
