Headed Up

"Headed Up" captures the sudden, alert moment a creature is startled, freezing the instant its head jerks upward in response to a sound or movement. This sculpture embodies the thrilling tension between serene stillness and immediate, reactive awareness. It is a work of profound character and sophisticated artistry, designed to bring a dynamic and powerful narrative into any collection.
The sculpture’s compelling story is realized through an expert combination of materials. The body, carved from a single piece of rich, textured Spalted White Oak, is sleek and poised, suggesting a creature both powerful and graceful in its concentration. The artist's signature texturing enhances the form, adding a tactile depth that highlights the subtle tension in its posture. The head, cast in gleaming polished bronze, is raised sharply, creating a brilliant focal point that communicates surprise and keen awareness. The entire form is beautifully balanced on a solid granite base, providing a stable, elemental anchor that accentuates the sculpture’s alert, focused energy.
"Headed Up" is more than a static object; it is an exploration of pure, unadulterated instinct. The sharp upward tilt of the head, the poised body, and the harmonious blend of materials combine to create a piece that feels vibrantly alive with intent. This is an ideal acquisition for the collector who appreciates art that tells a story of instinct, precision, and the elegant power of a concentrated mind.
