Bronze sculpture by Scott Rogers of a larger then life American Bison

It’s amazing for me to follow / witness what my father called, “The daisy chain”. I think that phrase comes from kids making a chain out of the stems of daisies.

HERE GOES:
I deliver a monument to Texas. After the delivery, the ranch foreman tells me the owner of the place is looking for a monumental buffalo. I make a phone call to the owner about the possibility of creating a monumental buffalo for him. We agree on a price. I’m sculpting the thing.

It begs the question:
How many opportunities have I taken advantage of OR passed by because I did or didn’t listen?

Two months of sculpting / Two more months to go on the clay work.
