Bear with a bouquet of fish

Bears have a custom during mating season: offering bouquets of freshwater fish to their beloveds. They choose them lively and fresh, and while we humans prefer the scent of roses, the female bears adore the aroma of these favorite prey, which they will devour with relish. My lovestruck bear, a little shy and a little awkward, clutches his bouquet to his...

In Great Shape 3

€5,950.00

A round, smiling mother hippopotamus lets her young play on her back. In Egyptian mythology, the hippopotamus-headed goddess Tarouet was the protector of children and mothers. This could make her formidable in times of danger. I imagined a mother goddess in my own gentle way, sharing a peaceful, playful moment with her children. Silver nitrate gray patina

Great Bear in Kamchatka or Flying Fish

€7,800.00

For the latest version of the Kamchatka trilogy, I imagined a bear delighted by his miraculous catch, whose fish fly away like birds—a poetic image. He watches them peacefully and smiling. No matter, he has enough left to feed his offspring! For me, the bear symbolizes protection and the fish symbolize life. The warm brown patina beautifully highlights...

Bear with three fish

€2,900.00

Well placed on its hind legs, this bear cub looking towards the sky thanks mother nature for having allowed him to do such good fishing. If this lasts, salmon would be on the verge of extinction!! It is a sculpture that highlights an expression of gratitude and hope. The slightly shimmering warm brown patina, brings out the green of the fish.

In top form large format

€52,000.00

Following a commission from a collector, I took up the theme of "EN PLEINE FORME" in large format. It's a very round piece. The little one perched on its mother's (or father's!) back gives the piece a playful, airy feel. The "protagonists" in the scene communicate with each other through a play of tender, amused glances. I constantly adjusted the...

A king’s feast

€2,850.00

The bear cub is very happy to have made such a good catch, the fish a little less so, but that's life! We all depend on the food chain. So here's a small-format sculpture on the "bear and fish" theme, which I always take up with great pleasure. The warm brown patina of the bear contrasts with the green hue of the fish, obtained with ferric nitrate.

Drum Shaman Bear

€5,800.00

I discovered at the flea market a very beautiful old photo of a Central Asian shaman wearing a bear skin, the animal's head covering his skull. I also remember a scene from a western by the Coen brothers “TRUE GRIT” in which we see a healer on horseback covered in bear skin emerge from a dark forest, a rather exceptional scene. These representations made...

Bear juggling fish

€6,200.00

A brown bear juggling with the product of his catch for his pleasure and that of his cubs. Entertainment is rare in Kamchatka. Few tourists to get their teeth into. The fish defies the laws of gravity, so hard on the sculptor! This animal bronze sculpture is part of the "bears and fish" series (which I have not finished exploring). Warm brown patina for...

Bear in Kamchatka

A revisited version of FISHING IN KAMCHATKA, this sculpture tells an additional story. KAMCHATKA is the ARCADIA of bears, as the salmon resource is inexhaustible there. A fisch escapes : no big deal, the fisherman looks at the fugitive with amusement. He returns home with a determined step to feed his family, like the bear MARTIN of the fairy tales. A nod...

Anadyomene Venus

The hippopotamus quickly joined my bestiary as its curves were plastically attractive. The hippopotamus was a symbol of fertility in ancient Egypt a symbol and is still a symbol very often collected by women. I represented him with his little ones, or ridden by chubby riders. Just for fun, I also created small anthropomorphic Venuses. A warning, in...
