Limited Edition Two Mice with Red Poppy Hot Cast Bronze Michael Simpson 1074
Limited Edition Foundry Bronze Sculpture
Mouse with Poppy 1074
Artist: Michael Simpson
Although Mick studied fine art at Staffordshire Polytechnic it was the traditions of his home town of Stoke-on-Trent which inspired his love for sculpture. The famous towns forming the region have created some of the worlds finest works and respect for the craft of the sculptor and designer is well deserved.
There are few modelers who can produce accurate and detailed studies covering such diverse subjects as dogs, cats, African wildlife and the female form. Mick is one of the few who can achieve this goal working from reference books, his own drawings, photographs and observation. Like so many artists and sculptors, his studio walls are covered in this reference.
Mick is unusual in another way in that he is one of the few sculptors preferring to model in clay. Mostly wax is used for its versatility but Mick loves the freedom clay offers and is quite content to work around its limitations.
This fantastic hot cast / solid bronze sculpture is an limited edition bronze made from a clay original by Michael Simpson. Fantastic detail, comes boxed with certificate.
