Bronze African Fertility Sculpture I

Bronze sculpture of young girl from Kenya's Turkana tribe in traditional attire and characteristic hairdo.

My art is inspired by Africa and it’s magnificent wildlife and people. Seeing tribe people’s silhouettes in the blistering summer haze enthused me to branch out into human figurative sculpture.
