Several years ago, Ken & I had the great pleasure of meeting Mr. Larry Godwin in his personal gallery – Art Wurks- in Brundidge Alabama. I had seen this place for years- I remember it even as a kid. Many people know it as the place on Highway 231 between Troy and Dothan with the giant rooster in front made from car bumpers. It was entirely luck that we found the artist there- or fate?! We were mesmerized and amazed as we took a personal tour of the gallery and spent a bit of the afternoon with Mr. Godwin. A man of great talent and vision, he is as personable as his artwork!
Finally, photos from that memorable time.
Larry Godwin / Brundidge AL ~ sculptor, artist ~ born at the height of the Great Depression in rural South Alabama, has spent much of his life translating his aesthetic visions into environmental art and fountains. Public and privately held examples of his work dot the Southeast and other parts of the country and Europe.
Larry received his initial arts training at Auburn University, graduating with a Bachelor of Applied Arts degree in 1957. After a stint in the Army, Larry opened a gallery in Brundidge, Alabama, eventually adding a full metal fabrication and foundry shop. After a tour of Europe, he completed his first large commission, a mural at the Gayle Planetarium in Montgomery, Alabama in 1967. A tendency toward relief elements in the artist's otherwise two-dimensional works led to medium and large-scale welded metal fully three-dimensional sculptures beginning in 1968.
Larry Godwin was one of the first artists in the Artist-in-Residence program when it went national in 1970, teaching with great success in rural elementary, middle and high schools over two school years. He notably supervised the student construction of a school mascot (an eagle) from 1,400 pounds of chrome automobile bumpers from a local junkyard.
The sculptor's interest in fountain technology led to the first public fountain installations at a Montgomery mall in 1977 and an unpublished technical manuscript on fountain sculpture. A recent fountain grouping at Kindercare's home office in Montgomery celebrates the whimsy of childhood fantasies.
Other notable monumental sculptures include work for Disney World, Alabama State University, and Hard Rock Café. A full-scale interpretation of the Wright Brother's 1910 flier at the Air Force's Air University in Montgomery in 1985 has led to other Wright fliers in Daytona Beach, Florida in 1989 (the 1903 "Kitty Hawk" model) and Dayton, Ohio, completed this year (the 1905 model).
Larry frequently works with architects to incorporate sculpture into a building's ecology at the planning stage. He recently produced a series of seven bronze panels depicting in relief the history of Montgomery for a park in the Retirement Systems of Alabama complex.
In addition to his Art Wurks gallery, Larry Godwin currently maintains a 10,000 square foot warehouse with overhead crane and other facilities for constructing and manipulating the monumental scale sculptures and fountains he favors. A foundry, lost wax casting center and other annexes bring the total workspace to 16,000 square feet.
He continues to explore new forms, methods and materials such as sculptures that expand and contract or interlocking elements that combine in an infinite variety of ways.

F/8 @ 6 seconds ISO 100 @ 19mm
Something different. I took my camera to my son's Graduation ceremony, and found this group. I loved the colours of the head-scarves and the coming together of the Islamic tradition with the Oxford tradition of this old and venerable university.

Well........ Posted another Beaver shot earlier. For some reason. Now pictures outside must be offensive. Even if it's an actual beaver and a play on words.
Anyways...... Hopefully this isn't offensive. Seeing l don't post nudity.
Who knows. Maybe having a cup of coffee is offensive to people allergic to caffeine.

The addition of light rail service is helping to further transform Portland's South Waterfront District into a multi-modal transit neighborhood. The south terminus of the Harbor Structure (with the light rail trackway installed) is seen on the top-right side of the photo.
TriMet buses and Portland Streetcars will be able to enter and exit the South Waterfront/SW Moody Ave Station (where the construction trucks are parked on the right) before or after crossing the Willamette River via Tilikum Crossing. Buses will also be able to use the Harbor structure to travel between South Waterfront and downtown Portland.
