Description
“This is really out of my league and it was very difficult to do, but when someone asks then someone better do it, right? How do you sculpt water? How can you sculpt water cascading down the sides of a fish? How do you sculpt droplets hitting the waves around? Heck I don’t know so I better make sure that I get the patina right. The fish is a Yellow Tailed Tuna and the pictures that I had to look at to achieve this show that it is indeed a very beautiful fish.
I hope that you enjoy him as much as I struggled to sculpt him.” John Tolmay

About The Artist – John Tolmay, African Wildlife Bronze Sculptures
“I live in that head-space between past and present, translating scenes and images that are vividly recorded in my mind into waxes and clays. I use various foundries around the States to expertly cast them into the pieces of art that grace homes, studios, trophy rooms and offices around the world. While being an artist and a hunter I am also personally committed to Conservation. I started what is known as the “Nyawa Pilot Project” in Zambia.
The aim of this project is to achieve a better balance for rural people and their resources. Gradually the slow process of change is gaining momentum and it is my sincere hope that the concept of Community Based Wildlife Management will cease to be something that is only spoken about and become policy in the near future.”
