This bell is a larger version of a piece I made while still teaching high school art. As students were working on their classroom projects, I would experiment with original sculpture ideas in clay. This bell came from my desire to create something purely abstract. It is also a study of textures and patina samples. As it turned out, it became my first tabletop bell and one of my most popular editions. The musical tone of this bell is very resonant which led me to making many of my bells in this particular shape. The stand is fabricated steel with a Chinese-style cloud design on top. The textures, colors and shapes are studies of the effects of weather and water on the earth.
