"Desert Big Horn" - Mojave tri-colored marble
Many people are familiar with Carlyle Montgomery's outdoor Condor sculpture at the Ojai Valley Museum, but almost no one is aware of, or has seen, his other works. From now through Sept. 2 there is a rare opportunity to see them. Family members and friends have loaned the museum their Carlyle Montgomery sculptures for an exhibit, the likes of which, may never happen again. This is an amazing exhibit and is ongoing with the Nancy Whitman Retrospective. Both exhibits are now open.
"Friends" - California Serpentine.
Carlyle had a deep love for nature, which is reflected in the subject matter of his art pieces. All the sculptures in the exhibit were made in a period of about 7 years during the 1990s. In the "Friends" sculpture to the right, the hand is the artist's. Every piece is truly exquisite and well worth a visit. Below are a few more works.
"Quetzal" - Pakistani Green Onyx
"Oil Duck" - Virginia Steatite Soapstone
"Kit Fox" - Baja Onyx
