Channing Tatum and Ed Natiya

As I was sculpting in Hueys Fine Art this past weekend, I noticed a very familiar face. To my surprise, I recogonized that I was looking at ChanningTatum and Jenna Dewan-Tatum.  They were quite intrigued by my sculptures and Channing was very interested in sculpting himself.  We talked quite a bit about sculpting and they were particularly fond of the life sized “Forever One” which had already begun the molding process.  For anyone who has had the pleasure of meeting and conversing with the Tatums, I’m sure they would agree that they are very comfortable to be around and just a delight to meet. 

Currently, Channing Tatum is finishing his work on the new film “Knockout” in Santa Fe.  You may recogonize him in other successful movies such as “Dear John”, “GI Joe”, ”Fighting”, “Step Up” and “She’s the Man”.  As an artist myself, it’s always nice to meet talented artists within other fields of The Arts.  Thank you Channing and Jenna for taking the time to stop by Hueys Fine Art. 

Hello Everyone,

All the pre-cast orders of  the study size of “Forever One” have been shipped!  Now don’t confuse the study size with the life size sculpture, the larger one is only beginning to be cast.  But, as a result of many clients receiving their bronze, Hueys Fine Art and I have received some nice compliments and words of appreciation.  We like happy collectors!  We thought it would be nice to share a couple of e-mails we have gotten. I would like to thank all my clients for their kind thoughts and continued support!

“Keith,

I wanted to thank you for answering all the questions I had while waiting for Forever One Bronze Statue. I want to extend my compliments to the artist, It is a beautiful piece of Art.  It was just  by accident that my wife and I discovered your Art gallery.  The Forever One Bronze Statue became the piece we wanted.  Ed Natiya has done a beautiful job with this piece.  The patina and everything about this piece of Art has exceeded our expectations.  We have had many compliments on the Forever One Bronze Statue.  I have included attachments of pictures.  Thank you!      Sincerely, Clyde

Hi Ed,

We just wanted to drop you a note to say we’ve received our Forever One bronze, and we are incredibly thrilled with it.  It fits beautifully in our home, and we have positioned it as a highlight in our great room.  The patina is perfect, and it has exceeded our expectations.  Congratulations on creating such a beautiful piece, it absolutely speaks to us!  Thank you very much! Dave and Judit
