THE CHEYENNE FRONTIER DAYS WESTERN ART SHOW


THE CHEYENNE FRONTIER DAYS WESTERN ART SHOW started last night they had a benefit auction for the Old West Museum. My bronze sculpture Champion Lane Frost height 38’’ was auctioned and brought a record $15,000. Champion Lane Frost was my first large public monument I created 23 years ago and it will always have a special place in my heart. Champion Lane Frost is located at Cheyenne Frontier Days Old West Museum Cheyenne WY. This is a quote by Lane Frost that has a power that speaks a simple truth.
''Don't be afraid to go after what you want to do, and what you want to be. But don't be afraid to be willing to pay the price''-Lane Frost.

THE HUMAN FIGURE SCULPTURE 3 DAY WORKSHOP

  THE HUMAN FIGURE SCULPTURE 3 DAY WORKSHOP August 10, 11, 12, 2016

At ART 321     321 W Midwest Ave, Casper, WY 82601    (307) 265-2655   tuition $450. It is important to remember every expert was a beginner at some time.  So the most important thing to bring to this class is a hungry mind, the desire to sculpt and a positive attitude.  We will study armature construction, anatomical proportion, composition, design and gesture.  We will also look for that hidden spark that brings the essence of life into our own work.  Working with oil base clay and using live models we will sculpt a male figure.   On the last day of the workshop the class will be taken on a personal tour of ‘’EMBRACE THE STRUGGLE’’ The bronze art of Chris Navarro a one man show with over 60 bronze sculptures at the Nicolaysen Art Museum Casper WY. There are a couple of spots still open. Come to this workshop if you want to learn about sculpture and be inspired to follow your passions. cnavarroart.com
