Donation: “Sons of the Desert” Bronze Maquette and sponsorship of life-size monument in Hermosillo, Sonora, Mexico where your name will be included on the sponsorship plaque at the monument
Special note: The latest monument to be funded by the sale of a series of maquettes (miniatures) is the desert sheep called “Sons of the Desert”. The larger than life-size monument will be installed in the city of Hermosillo, Sonora, Mexico. It depicts two desert sheep rams atop a desert bluff where a ewe and lamb are approaching a waterhole. This is the fourth and final wild sheep monument to represent the four species of North American wild sheep. As with all previous monuments the sponsors’ names are displayed on a bronze plaque at the monument site. This monument is scheduled for installation in the summer of 2011. The maquette is 16" tall and is mounted on fine walnut wood. The monument in Mexico will be mounted atop a custom made stone plinth replete with landscaping and a waterhole.
Rick Taylor is one of the most renowned wildlife artists on the contemporary sculpture scene with his focus centered on the wild sheep of the world.
***This is the last available bronze maquette and sponsorship available for the “Sons of the Desert” monument sculpted by Rick Taylor. Numbered 36/100 but the series and sponsorships have sold out. The life-size monument is already in place and Rick is awaiting your name to add to the plaque.***
