Commission of your own dog - Wire Haired Pointer Dog

 

 

Really enjoyed making this dog commisson. I hadn't made a dog like this before so it was a challenge. Lovely dog with character. Client found the web site and got in touch with me. The top pictures shows it half way through the making. Middle picture is it completed but ready for drying before it can be fired in the kiln. And the last picture? That's me working on the dog getting the form right. The flow and fall of the fur made it really interesting. I have posted more pictures on Facebook -Hollingworth Animal Sculpture. Or worth looking at one of my web sites.

Beaulieu Exhibition 'How High the Moon' Hare Sculpture

Exhibition at Beaulieu Estate Hampshire

'How High the Moon' Hare sculpture

The sculpture is now installed into the Surrey Scuplture Society sculpture Trail at Beaulieu.

The exhibition has now started and is on until September 3rd 2012. Delighted to have o sculpture selected for the exhibition. It has been put into a wild meadow near the Palace at Beaulieu. There is a path to the side of it, but as you can see in the pictures it is so well hidden that the hare looks as if it is quite at home in the new setting.  Such a well chosen site - thanks to the organiser of the trail. 

The sculpture can also be viewed on my web site www.hollingworth-bronze-sculpture.co.uk



Lying Hare Sculpture

I meant to put this picture up last week, somehow the time just passed too quickly. The client is coming to collect the hare commission next week so I thought I ought to at least put up one more picture today.

Lying hare sculpture - bronze glaze- mounted on a marble base

It has worked very well and will be a contrast to the othet Crouching Hare.  Photographing sculpture is always difficult.  Did this in the garden but took it in a shady place. Took out some of the background but I am not very expert at this. Still it does show the piece before it goes.
