Description of Sculpture:
A remarkable
and very life-like self portrait relief,
suitable for hanging on the wall. Artist will accept commissions for similar
relief portraits and Artist can work from photographs.
Artist’s Interpretation:
“I did this
self portrait as a gift for my 3 adult sons and my adult grandson. My father
taught me that ‘Nothing is Impossible’. I have passed on the same code of life
and inner belief to my sons and to my grandson. The portrait is exact, wrinkles,
aging skin and everything that goes with age 74. The message ‘Nothing is
Impossible’ is written in my handwriting, etched into the bronze, as part of the
portrait. This relief hangs by the desk of each of my sons and my grandson in
the hope that each will look upon every obstacle in his life as just another
opportunity to overcome the temporary hurdle as he reaches for his destiny.”
