 "The
Hunter"4 1/2" High Bronze Limited Edition $790.00 The cougar is built for both stealth and for speed. Armed with muscles that can move fluidly, but with sledgehammer power, it stalks it's prey then strikes like a coiled steel spring. This large cat is truly an awesome animal. |
 "The
Majestic One"10" High Bronze Limited Edition $990.00 The elk is one of the most majestic animals in the Rocky Mountains. Once an inhabitant of the plains, they have retreated to the sanctuary of the rugged mountains to avoid the advance of civilization. There isn't am eerier sound in the forest tan the bugle of an big bull piercing the morning mist. |
 "Wildfire"7" High Bronze Limited Edition $990.00 Today's wild horses are descendents from tame animals brought to America by the Spanish explorers. They have long since escaped and returned to their natural instinct. It's an awesome sight to see a herd of wild horses galloping across the plains |

6" H Bronze Edition 500 $990.00 Grizzlies are well- equipped hunters, with a large hump of muscle on the top of their back. They also have huge claws and teeth, and an acute sense of smell. They can also cover a lot of ground in a short period of time, and have been seen to chase down and kill an elk. If left alone, they will probably not bother you. However, it gives a sense of apprehension when you are traveling in grizzly country and realize that you are not the apex predator. This bronze is finished in a translucent brown patina with black and white veining, which captures the inherent beauty of both the bronze and the bear. |
 "King
Thunder"7" High Bronze Edition 1000 $990.00 When buffalo were free, so was man. The bison's domain is now fenced and they are mainly confined to parks and private herds. Man's lifestyle has changed along with the bison and this bronze is a tribute to the former rulers of the prairie. |
"Takin' Me?" 7" High Bronze Edition 500 $1360.00 Takin’ Me? How could you not? With that wistful, eager look, your best friend is always ready to go on a walk, car ride, hunting, whatever! This sculpture captures the unbounded enthusiasm and unconditional love of our wonderful canine friends. |
"Da Vinci Horse" 9” H Bronze Edition 500 $1360.00
In
1484, Leonardo da Vinci was commissioned to sculpt a colossal horse in
Milan, Italy. He
finally finished the 24” high earthenware model 14 years later.
In the ensuing period, Italy and France went to war, and all
the available bronze was used for cannons and cannonballs,
consequently there wasn’t any bronze to cast the horse.
Shortly thereafter, France invaded Italy and occupied Milan.
The French archers used Leonardo’s clay horse for target
practice and totally destroyed it. His sketches were all that remained. |
