The piece is signed with the date of 1985 and is the last in a series of twenty. When Spencer began her exploration of bronze the amazing patinas that give her work such characteristic color began to emerge. Patinas are a treatment of the bronze with various salts, minerals and acids that react chemically with the bronze to change its color. Working with Artworks Foundry, Sharon became a master at this, and often has her pieces look like stone or marble. Sharon's work reflects her fascination with Native American, Eskimo, and Asian cultures. It affirms her respect for animals and the earth, and this thematic thread is constant throughout her body of work, which ranges from large outdoor abstract pieces to small-scale, figurative work. This sculpture is in good condition for its usage with minimal wear and a testament to her artistry. See less
