With the unbearable Texas heat right now, it has chased me from my shop. Thus I decided to work on another bronze sculpture I’ve been thinking about. It is a replica of a cape buff bull I killed last year in Zim. It’s standing in shallow water about to head out, or at something . After taking a few pics last night, I see I still need to work on the ears and one hoof but it’s 95% done. It’s in clay and will have to be molded before a bronze can be poured.

I would of course but this is only my sixth attempt. I don’t have much of a catalog .

I appreciate the kind words and encouragement. It’s really a budding hobby at this point.

Thanks guys. I'm letting it sit a few more days to see if anything else hits me on it before I take it to be molded for the bronze process. I added texture to his nose and a few small wrinkles behind his nose pad. Also beefed up his upper lip line to give it more sag over the lower lip. A wise man once told me, "You have to live with it being finished at some point or it will never be finished"
