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 

       I am so very excited to let everyone see my completed sculpture of the large “Forever one”.  I just finished sculpting this peice this past week at Huey’s Fine Art in Santa Fe.  Now, the moldmaker and I will soon be cutting it up and creating the mother molds before we begin the lost wax casting process into bronze.  I’ll post some pictures of that process as well, when we begin molding later this week. Until then I hope you enjoy looking at the culmination of 8 months of work!

How exciting it is for me to start working on my next great project! At Hueys Fine Art in Santa Fe, you are all welcome to come in and watch as I begin creating one of my most incredible large works to date.  This past year, I have had overwhelming response and appreciation for my 50″ H x 30″ W x 20″ D sculpture entitled, ‘Chiefs of the Wind’. It truly is one of my greatest sculptures. Now, over the course of a year, I will work to recreate this same piece in a 12′ Tall Monument Size. Below are just a few pictures of it’s humble beginnings. From basic welded metal armature, to added aluminum wire armature, and then aluminum foil filler. As I begin adding clay, I will post more pictures. Hope you enjoy & keep sculpting! Ed.

‘Spoils of War’ is my newest precast sculpture on display at Hueys Fine Art. This piece combines fierce strength, uncompromising emotion and plenty of Native American nostalgia, authentic history and story. See details of it’s already captivating beginnings below…

You can now find ‘Little Big Chief’ finished and on display in bronze at Hueys Fine Art.   I personally love this piece in bronze. With all It’s patina and attitude! See the video in the right hand side bar for a full 360 degrees viewing of this bronze.

Taking in it’s strong spirit, full circle story and endless detail, it is quickly realized that this work of art speaks beyond the now and has more to offer than most others’ life size works. Being only 13″ tall, and a limited Edition of only 25, this bronze truly out-shines anything else in comparison on the market today.  Enjoy more details and close-up shots of ‘Echoes of the Past’ below. Or you can experience the full account of this bronze and it’s ‘Echoing’ spirit in person at Hueys Fine Art Gallery in Santa Fe, NM.

Here it is, ‘Legend of the Buffalo Runner’ in bronze! See some great closeup shots of the bronze and patina below.

The next pre-cast sculpture in the ‘Legends’ series has just arrived at Hueys Fine Art in Santa Fe, and is now available for purchase.  It is the second piece in the series entitled, ‘Legend of the Shadow Hunter’…

Following in the tradition of the series and native tribes of the past. From one side you see only the animal, this time a running wolf, and yet turn the piece around and you’ll find a surprise awaiting. Hidden beneath the skin of the wolf lies a warrior and a hunter.  Fierce, strong, snarling, this deadly hunter seeks his prey with quiet, but aggressive skill. I hope you will enjoy viewing the following photos, I am very proud of this piece. Please pay particular attention to the details found in the hands and the rendering of the facial expression. I will continue to finish sculpting this piece at Hueys Fine Art  over the next few months. For any additional information or pricing please feel free to contact the gallery.
