Let'er Buck!

The Cheyenne Frontier Days Western Art Show starts today and runs through July 26. I have my sculpture WYOMING COWBOY of the great bucking horse Steamboat featured at CFD.This famous bucker bred in Wyoming was voted worst bucking horse of the year at the Cheyenne Frontier Days celebration 1906 and 1907. The horse was jet black with three white socks and had a powerful build. When he was a colt he sustained a broken bone in his nose that caused him to make a whistling sound when he bucked and that is why the cowboys gave him the name Steamboat. The old-time cowboys said the horse would buck his heart out and wouldn't quit. This horse has become the iconic symbol for the great state of Wyoming. Let'er Buck!

''BOLT FROM THE BLUE''

''BOLT FROM THE BLUE'' my monumental Peregrine Falcon will be installed at the Air Force Academy.It is an honor to have my work there. My dad was a 30 year military air force officer a veteran of WWII Korea and Vietnam. I grew up on airbases in the US and Europe.I have 3 older brother who were all military aviators. I started flying when I was 19. I come from a family of aviators.

Columbian Mammoth.

I was commissioned to create a life size bronze and stainless steel sculpture (20 feet high x 25 feet long x 16’ wide) of the Columbian Mammoth. The Columbian Mammoth has been chosen as the iconic symbol for the Washakie Museum and Cultural Center in Worland Wyoming. The Colby Mammoth Kill Site near Worland, Wyoming, provided evidence of Paleo-Indian hunters using Clovis projectile points to harvest the large mammoths. Can you imagine early Wyoming man was taking these animals down with a sharp rock on the end of a stick? Man they had to be tough!
Doing large monumental bronze sculptures is like climbing a ladder just keep taking small steps up and you make it to the top. No job is too big or small if you have the desire to finish it.
