Christy Daniels
Christy Daniels is a respected bronze sculptor known for her depictions of real life western and wildlife experiences. Her exceptional understanding of animal body language and emotions, not only flow through her pieces but help her tell a story forever preserved in a three– dimensional snapshot. As well as the body language and necessary conformation, Christy feels "the look in the eye" of her animals is key to drawing the viewer into the story.
Daniels was encouraged by her artist mother to draw during her earliest childhood years. She found her exceptional talent for sculptural work later in her teenage years. She secured a job in 1999 at Chip Jones' Big Rock foundry near Missoula, Montana and spent four years learning the lost wax bronze casting method and perfecting her skill in that which had become her passion — The Bronze.
Christy began displaying her bronzes in 2002 at art shows in Great Falls; Cody, Wyoming; Las Vegas; Ogden, Utah; and Cowboy Poetry and Art gatherings around the northwest, conjoining her sculptures with other art mediums in paying tribute to the historical life of the cowboy. She has received considerable recognition for her work with her list of awards continuing to grow.
