TO ENLARGE CLICK ON PICTURE AND VIEW MORE PICTURES The bronze sculpture is of a life size nude setting on a rock. It is an achievement of solid simplicity. The piece was done on commission. The artist applied the most exacting standards to create a bronze sculpture of a real person that reflects the sensual aspects of her female figure. The overall look has a sense of order and balance of an idealized beauty. The feet are delicately rendered. The gentle hands add to the balance and harmony of the figure as she leans back in repose. The bronze piece is very heavy yet appears to float, never feeling bulky or clumsy. Note the long hair draped over the shoulders. This is one of the most difficult areas when working with bronze. This is an extremely complicated process because the metal does not bend easily therefore artists rarely ever render long hair as seen in the above picture. Ed Colarik has accomplished a sovereign mastery over the total bronze process thus creating a beautiful piece of realistic art of an actual person. |

TO ENLARGE CLICK ON PICTURE AND VIEW MORE PICTURES The life size bronze figures of a young boy and girl represents a universal experience that most children have had at some time or in some variation. The boy and girl are walking on a stone ledge pretending to be acrobats. They don't have far to fall except in a child's imagination. Notice the unusual patina work. It is not paint but an pigment mixed with a chemical burned into the metal. These charming bronzes are displayed outside a beautiful home in the Los Angeles area. |

They include chess sets and chess boards; a seven (7) pieces collection of small bronze figures from the era of King Kamehameha I (1758 - 1819); a twenty-six (26) piece pewter collection featuring hula dancers, Captain Cook, Queen Kaahumanu, Kahunas, outriggers and warriors; a nine (9") commemorative pewter plate sculptured in relief bringing to life the Hawaiian Monarchs.

TO ENLARGE CLICK ON PICTURE AND VIEW MORE PICTURES Edward Colarik created the concept for the Vietnam Memorial Sculpture Garden. A thousand (1,000) pound bronze sculpture comprised of over seventy (70) different pieces. The piece is entitled "Mail Call". The receiving of mail was often the highlight of a soldier's day. It meant so much that sometimes soldiers who didn't receive any mail would ask to read their friends mail. For several years the artist has been creating custom or original "one of a kind" art pieces for collectors. Commissions by collectors for custom art pieces continues to allow him to create many "one of a kind" original works of art. Edward Colarik, " I greatly enjoy the ongoing creative process. I especially enjoy creating in a medium that leaves a legacy for future generations. I refer to bronze as the "eternal material" because it lasts for hundreds of years. My personal involvement in the casting process also gives me the opportunity to add the special touches that often bring that indefinable connection between myself and the collector." You can commission your own dream art. For inquiries into your dream sculpture call 323-935-2311 or even better, e-mail Edward Colarik at |
