Frank Finney, Carved Wood Painted Robin
SOLD.
Carved wood painted robin by Frank Finney.
Originally from South Africa, Frank Finney (b. 1947) moved to Cape Charles, Virginia at age seven and grew up surrounded by wildlife in and around the Chesapeake Bay. He has been carving and painting wood for most of his life. Renowned for his realistic decoys as well as his whimsical folk art birds, his sculptures are highly coveted, prized for their accuracy and charm. We fell in love with the cartoon quality and personality of this robin, his eyes with their slightly surrealist quality reminding us of a Dali collage.

Frederic Mares Deulovol (1893-1991) patinated bronze gazelle doe.
Base signed in the casting: F. Mares; with impressed foundry mark: Fundicion R. Vila / Valls (Tarragona).
Bronze base has been removed for photography and because we feel the doe stands more beautifully in a room without it, though it could be simply placed back on matching bronze base if desired.
This doe comes form a California estate where it was kept outdoors, partially covered. The resulting patina and verdigris is beautiful and reminiscent of a Pat Steir painting. The bronze is beautifully sculpted with incredible, life-like details, from the slight movement of the tail to the deep gaze of the eyes.
