This is my newest limited edition bronze, started in November 2005. The work was finished and molds built in February 2006. I like to use real wood as perches for my various sculpted pieces, and I always have my eye out for interesting shapes and textures in my travels. This particular piece of Myrtle Wood picked up on a recent trip to the Oregon Coast and Northern California. The wood is 22 inches long overall. The finished bronze is mounted on a piece of Green Marble to simulate the surface of the water. I've applied a darker green patina on the shell of the largest slider, as the shell tends to darken with age in live pond trutles. The small Sliders are a brighter green as you would expect in youngsters.
SPECIAL OFFER
I can offer a substantial savings over the projected Gallery Retail price; If you can visualize the finished bronze based on these photos. I'll offer this piece at $950 and include packing and shipping costs in that price. I'll ask for a $450 deposit with the balance due upon shipping. The first of these should be cast and finished by mid december. Please eMail me: bill@huntstudios.com with any questions or comments.
