A title is another tool to help enhance the story like using composition design movement and line.

When creating art, I want to tell a story with my sculptures. I think about my titles a great deal to help enhance the story of the sculpture. There are times when I come up with the title first. Then create the sculpture to interpret the title. A title is another tool to help enhance the story like using composition design movement and line.

Never give up, and do not take “No” for an answer. Believe in yourself when no one else does

I have been making my living following my dream of being an artist for over 32 years and my advice is to never give up, and do not take “No” for an answer. Believe in yourself when no one else does. Do not be afraid of failure or of being knocked down. Just keep getting up and do the best that you can with what’s in front of you.

Seeing Harry Jackson’s Two Champs sculpture all those years ago made me want to become a sculptor.

I was 23 years old when I saw a bronze by Wyoming sculptor Harry Jackson.Seeing Harry Jackson’s Two Champs sculpture all those years ago made me want to become a sculptor. It lit a spark in me that still burns today. When others look at my life’s work, I hope it will light a spark in them to be inspired to follow their dreams.

‘’LAND OF THE FREE’’ by Chris Navarro

‘’LAND OF THE FREE’’ by Chris Navarro

 bronze sculpture H-16’’ L-23’’ W-5’’  price 2400.

I have created this sculpture to show my love for this great country and wanted to express my pride and feelings about being an American.  Like every country, we have our share of problems and conflicts. However, after extensive travel and living abroad, I have not found a better place in which to live, work and raise my family. The opportunities and freedom to spread our wings and follow our personal beliefs and dreams are endless in the United States of America and is only limited by our efforts and desire to pursue them.

In this land of the free, we have the right and privilege to vote for the political candidates of our choice, to worship the Creator in the manner of our liking, and to enjoy the rights of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. I want my sculpture to honor this great land and pay tribute to the men and women who are brave enough to have fought, and continue to fight, for those freedoms. - Chris Navarro

ESSCENCE OF REX by Chris Navarro Monumental Bronze, 13.5’ x 28’ x 7’ This sculpture is a life-size Tyrannosaurus rex. One side is skeletal while the other side is “fleshed out.” LED lights illuminate the piece from within, and the light radiating outward gives the sculpture a special effect. To bring it to life and to create that “wow” factor, I had to inject emotion into Rex. The sculpture is located at the entrance to the Tate Geological Museum in Casper, Wyoming. www.chrisnavarro.com
