Limited edition bronze cats statues to buy
Searching after Limited edition bronze animal statues anniversary gifts? Bronze statues are perfect for a special gift occasion or if you want to infuse some art in to your home. Bronze is the most popular metal for cast sculptures due to its strength, lack of brittleness, and expanding/shrinking properties throughout the casting process. Bronze alloys also allow for very detailed sculpting and a vibrant and colorful color and finish. And then there’s durability: It’s been said that bronze sculpture will be the longest-lasting of all human creations. I find that humbling.
I went on a total fox jag a while back. I just love their forms and inquisitive natures. With these sculptures I’ve mostly explored foxes looking and behaving naturally, as well as engaging in a bit of my usual anthropomorphizing. (Man, I wish there was a shorter word for that!) This is Attention to De-tail, an elegant piece filled with great lines. My goal here was to create a lyrical design that celebrated the grace of foxes. This quiet moment allows me to explore the fox form in repose, instead of in action. There is no rushing here; we are allowing the fox to truly give attention to every detail. This piece exhibits all the hallmarks of my work, such as curves transitioning into planes, highlighted dimensional lines, complex and rich patinas, and a bit of complementary texture. Even though this fox is in repose, the graceful line from the tip of the tail to the nose is reminiscent of the movement of my dance sculptures. And as with another of my fox pieces, EnWrapture, I continue to explore the juxtaposition of texture with smooth surface. I love how the rock supports the fox and allows for a new interplay between two complementary patina styles. Find additional details at Fox bronze sculpture.
Advice for getting bronze art appraised: Have an authenticity statement. The easiest way to know the value of your piece is by having an authenticity statement from the artist. A certificate of authenticity ensures that the piece was made by the artist, and it goes a long way in determining the new value as the piece ages. If the bronze sculpture is something you have inherited, you can potentially contact the artist to receive more information on the value of the piece.
Bronze statues maintenance: Before we get into that, it is important to know that most bronze sculptures will come with a wax or polish of some kind already on it. This wax should protect the bronze sculpture for about three to five months, sometimes even longer. A key thing to check for (if your bronze isn’t covered with bird poop or other debris) is if water still beads off the sculpture. If it does, your outdoor bronze sculpture is not in need of cleaning quite yet. If water doesn’t bead off your outdoor bronze sculpture, it’s time to clean!
In addition to my bronzes that are limited or open editions, I do have several designs that are totally unique and have allowed me to experiment with different materials. My Column series combines different mediums such as oil painting and copper mesh, and my On the Rocks stemmed from my love of petrified wood and hornfels as a platform on which to show my smaller bronzes. I have also created several ceramic environments for a number of my lovable desk buddies. Be sure to check back often as the selections change often and pieces are adopted quickly.

Meet Laurel Peterson Gregory : Artist Statement: My art has always represented my vision and spirit. And if my current bronze sculpture series is any indication, that spirit is a tad whimsical. Life is often way too serious. I want my sculptures to lift the viewer and take them to a better place for a timeless moment. As an artist, nothing makes me happier than seeing someone smile and laugh with my work.
