Convergence

2004. Permanent fountain installation... so, not for sale. 6'4" x 5'8" x 4' 10" But you can always commission a similar piece.

Here it is, ladies and gentlemen! The world's first functional (take my word for it) PVC pipe fountain! It isn't on in the picture for two reasons: 1. the glare off the water disturbed the overall composition of the photograph, and 2. (the real reason) The owner wasn't home to turn on the outlet it's plugged into. Overall, my color scheme is a simple attempt to tone myself down. I know, it looks pretty freaking extreme, as is, but you haven't seen the colorful debauchery I can inflict upon a tube. I took the first of these pictures from my client's deck, and the second from the North-Northwest. As for the third... I took it in my mind? Nah, it's a sketch I sent the client (most don't like being surprised). The reason I called this piece Convergence is because it somewhat reminds me of Santa's workshop, on the North Pole. Such is also why eight of the bricks around the pool are turned outward... one for each way the compass rose points. That sounds good until you realize that, from the North Pole, every direction is South. Oh, well.
