Gorilla (Heroic Size & Maquette)
Edition 8 47″H X 77″W X 30″D Call for Price
Edition 35 17″H X 22″W X 10″D Sold Out
“I had always seen gorilla sculptures done on all fours with that mean posture and attitude. They are not at all like that. Although they do have a formidable look on their faces and sculpture can’t get around that, they are not in the least bit aggressive. They are a passive, kind, shy introverted animal. I designed this piece expressly for a zoo setting. I made a real conscious effort to design the Gorilla so that kids would not fear it and would climb on it and sit on its lap. I wanted it to lie in quiet repose.”

Hat of Plumes
Edition 35 14″H X 6″W X 6″D $1,500

Herd of Birds
Edition 35 14″H X 38″W X 8″D SOLD OUT

Upon the stones
ten thousand years sooner than I,
Historians were scripting annals
of birds that run.
Shared is the desire to record
this wizardry of nature,
this ancient family of the savanna.
And, in the telling, images of
beaks agape hawking their journey
Sailing a sea of sand and wind.
Scratched in stone,
forms in bronze
Unabridged by space or subsequence,
The need remains,
we recombine.
Children of our,
show others their way.

Hidden in Dogwood
Edition 35 21.5″H X 20″W X 10″D $4,200
“Steam rises from the open spring, cooling above on the canopy that protects the pond. A rustling of early frost can be heard. Below, amid the leaf-felled dogwood of summer, preen the last remaining ‘Northerns’ headed south.”
Horses of the Mountain
Edition 35 18″H X 38″W X 16″D $15,000
“The type of clay I used in this sculpture has a certain drag to it. I like it because it’s best suited for pushing and shoving ending with a certain texture of surface quality needed to extenuate the chaos of this piece of work. But, under the appearance of confusion in this scene of seasonal behavior, belies a strict social structure of dominance, aggression, protection and flight. Familial symmetry is imperative to the safety and growth of this band of mountain horses.”

Let’s Go Buddy, 1920
Edition 35 19″H X 22″W X 9″D $3,500
“Women of the West in the early 1900’s were independent out of necessity and were respected for their ability to ride, rope and do whatever was required to survive in an inhospitable land. As loneliness was also part of the vast new country, this pioneer woman invites her dog, Buddy, along for company sharing in the day’s chores.”
Lily Pond Study
Edition 35 12″H X 12″W X 8″D $2,000
“Animals wander freely and unafraid on our property. Through the woods runs an ancient, but still used, game trail. Nearby is a lily pond sheltered by fallen cottonwood. Perhaps a moose was there.”
The Lily Pond
Edition 35 34″H X 30″W X 18″D $7,800
“I see in the woods and am unobstructed by human interference. Animals wander freely and unafraid sharing their space with us as we are all guests of this place. I look around me, the environment is inspiring; mood, shape, color. I cannot dismiss this consideration as I work. Nearby, on an ancient game trail, is a lily pond sheltered by fallen cottonwood, perhaps a moose was there.”
Mallard Study II
Edition 35 12″H X 9″W X 7″D $1,800
“We have a series of spring-fed ponds on our ranch that stay open throughout the winter. Mallards, geese and others pour onto these springs by the hundreds. I’ve had thrilling days watching them break through the dense gray searching for an open spot on our bird hostel.”
