Description:

"Battle Cry" started with a large and heavy Yak (Tibetan bison) skull. The skull just begged for something majestic. So I started playing with the idea of giving the skull a huge eagle like beak. He is so dramatic, I love the way he turned out.  I wanted him to be free standing and viewable from all sides, so I mounted him firmly to a base. He is finished on all sides, so he looks great from every angle.

Why am I creating these sculptures? Good question. They really challenge my design abilities and I love a good challenge. Each sculpture is a unique, with new design problems to solve. I have conquered the "grossed out" factor, and no longer have that queasy feeling in my stomach. I've learned a lot about bones, and now view them as fascinating material to work with. And maybe in the end, I am somehow honoring the animal by giving it a second life.

This sculpture was so much fun, that I've started another one. Just how far can I take this whole concept? Just wait and see.
