George Sherwood, Kinetic Sculptor. Wind and Light - Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens, Summer 2008, Boothbay, Maine.
Sherwood's sculptures are based on movement that is both subtle and obvious. At times it appears his sculptures do not move at all, and at other times they are a flurry of activity reminiscent of the tall swaying plumes of late-season cimicfuga in an autumn breeze. His work is made exclusively of stainless steel, the reflective qualities of which integrate the sculpture into its environment. Wind speed and direction, shades of light, time of day, precipitation, and seasonal color transform the qualities of light and movement. As stated by curator June LaCombe, his sculpture, exemplifies art for an ecological age. Further, she states, [Sherwood's] sculpture celebrates botanical forms and patterns in nature with proportional harmony.
Sherwood's work is part of the permanent collection at the Atlanta Botanical Garden, the Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens in Boothbay, Maine, and the Southern Vermont Art Center in Manchester, Vermont. In 2004, he exhibited at Saint-Gaudens National Historic Site in Cornish, New Hampshire and in 2009 at the Rose Kennedy Greenway in Boston, Massachusetts. In 2007 he was awarded the Lillian Heller award for Contemporary Art at Chesterwood in Stockbridge, Massachusetts. Sherwood is a member of Boston Sculptors Gallery and the Royal Society of British Sculptors. He is represented in collections throughout the United States and Europe.
Sherwood lives and works in Ipswich, Massachusetts.

Video of 231 Platt Road | Cornish, New Hampshire real estate & homes
Established in 1763, the town of Cornish became a well known summer resort for artists and writers. Artists seeking studios away from the summer heat of New York City began coming to Cornish in 1885. This area became the center of the popular Cornish Art Colony. The home of the St. Gaudens National Park, which offers wonderful concerts on the lawn during the summer months, Cornish offers the warmth of a small, distinguished and picturesque community and is an easy commute to Dartmouth College and historic Woodstock, Vt.
A scenic trip to the White Mountain National Forest is about forty-five minutes northeast, while the NH seacoast lies about ninety minutes away. Historic Concord, NH, can be reached inside of an hour and the state's largest city, Manchester, lies only ten minutes beyond that.
Cornish is the site of the second-longest wooden covered bridge in the United States, and the longest two-span covered bridge in the world.
Welcome to the Admiral William Folger Homestead.
Rear Admiral William Mayhew Folger was an officer in the United States Navy. He served in the American Civil War, Spanish-American War, and Phillipine-American War, and briefly was commander-in-Chief of the United States Asiatic Fleet.
Meticulously maintained with 8 fireplaces and large, light filled rooms. This home brings back the elegance of Victorian country living with modern conveniences on 35 acres of manicured grounds set among ancient trees, overlooking pastures of grazing horses. Constructed of planks and beams milled on the estate in 1900, this is a building of enduring quality.
Cornish remains a quaint community, with no large chain stores or shopping malls, but is located close to towns which do, such as Hanover and West Labanon.
