BRONCO BILLY

I wanted to sculpt an animal from America. The buffalo, such an immense historic creature of the plains. I combined the buffalo with the cowboy. Instantly Glen Campbell’s song of  “I’m a Rhinestone Cowboy” came to mind. I created these rhinestone chaps and hand shaped some raw hide for this hat. Ironic to think… What if the boot was on the other hoof?
