We are exhibiting at, Sculpture at Beaulieu, which runs from 17th June to 24th September. We have a collection of various sculptures in different locations in the grounds of Beaulieu. The sculptures will be as follows: A set of 3 Traingulums, which will be hanging in a tree and gently sounding like church bells! these are proving to be a very popular design! A set of 3 Corten Make A Wish Panels, Our bestselling bird bath the Oasis with its sleek contemporary design which looks stunning in the formal gardens at Beaulie Palace, A kinetic sculpture called Fallen Leaves which are made from corten and is a series of giant oak leaves that are hanging in the tree and then have randomly fallen on the ground.

This installation was completed for a commission that was a surprise birthday gift for one of our clients. They had previously seen this sculpture at Le Manoir in Oxfordshire.
The Giant Bulrush & Reed Sculpture took some time to install in the client’s lake, and required a telehandler to install onto the platform in the lake. All went well with a very happy customer. The sculpture weighed approx. 1 tonne and took 4 people to install over the course of 2 days.

This commission for our client was a birthday gift and finally got to install just before Christmas. The Peacock Sculpture now sits proudly on their wall in their stunning garden (we were also pleased to see some of our other sculptures in the garden!)

This month we did a temporary installation of our Giant Bulrush and Dragonfly for a short time at Baumber Walled Garden in Lincs. This place is so worth a visit.

The Garden Barn in Little Bradley commissioned us for their unique wedding venue to make and install a set of 3 Make A Wish Panels. These were placed at the bottom of the pond, and act as a stunning backdrop for their outdoor ceremony, looking out from the pavilion which is the other end of this magnificent pond.

A set of 3 Large Triangulums have been installed at a client’s home which has Lincoln Cathedral in the background, which suits the Triangulums, as when the wind gently blows the paddle, they can sound just like Cathedral bells!

This month we took a road trip over to Guernsey to install a Singing Lily Water Sculpture for our clients. And what a great time we had, not only spent some quality time with our clients, we also got to see a little bit of the island, and what great weather we had, just like being on a tropical holiday somewhere! This island is amazing and looking forward to returning and seeing how the Singing Lily is preforming!

It’s been a busy year at the shows for the team at Ian Gill Sculpture. Now the shows are over and we are going full steam ahead at the Forge with all our orders.
