As founders of the Briscoe, it is their vision that has created a magnificent museum along
San Antonio's famed Riverwalk, dedicated to interpreting and celebrating the West.

#131 Remarque: "Equus Found Fragments I & II"

The partial figure:  What can the sculpture do without?  Find power in the part by stripping the figure of the unessential.

Equus Found Fragments I & II were recently juried into the National Sculpture Society's 78th Annual Awards Exhibition.

I am proud to be an elected member of this time-honored and prestigious organization.

The dramatic sculpture also won the Award for Excellence from the Society of Animal Artists in 2010.
I have been an elected member of the Society of Animal Artists for over 30 years.
