Fawn sculpture

Fawn sculpture. Sculpted in Wales and handmade in England. Open edition fawn statue from the ‘Charities’ small animal range.
Description
I modelled this Fawn sculpture because I really admire the deer sculpture of several other animal sculptors past and present. The deer is iconic in Britain and I’ve seen beautiful life-size artworks belonging to clients. I’d like to sculpt a deer on that scale one day, it brings the woodland into our gardens. For now, I was happy to do something smaller and bring the woods into our homes.
I enjoy the cuteness of the fawn sculpture, but I wanted to introduce an unexpected element into the sculpture. The shell variant adds something curious and unusual, yet the contrasting shape is still complementary, allowing the fawn to nestle comfortably within.
When I model animals I try where possible to find examples from life. I also use many, many photos showing the animal (and other animals of the breed or species). This helps me sculpt their anatomical features. I study the way that muscles and skin features interact or alter their shape, and their different poses and attitudes.
– Your fawn sculpture raises money for wildlife conservation –
The Fawn statue is part of my Charities Range, and 10% of the proceeds go to the David Shepherd Wildlife Foundation. The wildlife conservation charity particularly focuses on Africa and Asia. It fights wildlife crime and protects natural areas. It also engages local communities in finding long-term, sustainable solutions to protect their native wildlife.
If you would like to commission a fawn sculpture or a another animal statue, I have some information about bespoke sculptures and pricing on my commissions page.
Suitable for indoor display and sized for the window-sill or mantlepiece. The Fawn sculpture is a perfect animal sculpture gift for a special occasion.
