Larger Than Life Coon Hound!

This client contacted me to create a sculpture of her coon hound mix. It was a gift for her husband in celebration of their 50th wedding anniversary! She sent me several pictures of the dog, Molly, from all different angles so I could accurately carve her.

Here she is in the roughing out stage…

Here I’m refining and sanding the form…

We stained the dog first before I painted the white markings to match the “real” Molly.

Finished!!

 

This is Molly with her double!
