“Legacy” – Bronze Sculpture by Shannon Cain
One of the most extraordinary aspects of growing up with a love of the outdoors is the opportunity to pass lessons on that will be remembered for a lifetime. In this piece, a grandfather is pointing out a buck that his grandson has successfully rattled up. This “Legacy” edition is numbered one of fifteen and was created using the ancient lost-wax method of bronze casting. In 2015, the Texas Chapter of the Wildlife Society presented the Judge’s Award for this “Legacy” sculpture.  This piece stands 10.5” tall, 6.5” square, and is mounted on a solid walnut base. Subsequent editions may be purchased tonight for the price of the first edition’s winning bid.  Please allow two to three months for delivery of later editions as each piece is produced individually by hand here in north Texas.  With correct care this sculpture will be passed down for generations serving as a reminder of the principles of stewardship that we attempt to embody.  Shannon is an artisan residing with his family in Sherman, Texas.  He holds a deep appreciation for wildlife management, sporting endeavors, and is supportive of numerous conservation organizations and charities in his community. Regarding his favorite subject matter, "My goal is to communicate the aspects of the sporting tradition and especially the stewardship responsibility within my work and share that with others.  There is a great source of pride in seeing this piece brought to auction for the benefit of the Dallas Ecological Foundation’s mission of promoting our outdoor heritage to the next generation of outdoors people.” DEF wishes to thank Shannon Cain for this donation.
