Following is the obituary of the artist from the Key West Newspaper - The Coconut Telegraph!, Wednesday, July 15, 2015. "Sculptor Dies" Well known around Key West for his mostly whimsical sculpture, Orvelo Wood passed away on June 29 at the age of 98. His forte was creating welded iron sculptures from discarded scraps of metal. The result was usually an animal or bird, and often whimsical; humor played an important part in his creative process. Among his favorite subjects were animals that he had loved and had raised, such as horses and goats. - askart
