Large Eagle
- Created: September 2024
- Medium: Copper / Large Slate Rock
- Note: Colin’s largest sculpture to date, a breathtaking outdoor piece with outstretched wings, poised for flight, glowing beautifully in the sunlight. The eagle is carrying a fish in its mouth, adding a dynamic element to the composition.
A monumental work of art, this large eagle sculpture captures the moment of action—wings fully spread, its gaze focused, ready to take off or land on the rugged slate rock below. The craftsmanship pushes the limits of metalwork, combining precision and artistic vision.
This sculpture is designed to be displayed outdoors, where natural light enhances the copper’s rich tones, creating a glowing effect as the sun moves across the sky. The intricate feather work, powerful posture, and attention to lifelike detail make this a true statement piece. The addition of the fish in the eagle’s mouth emphasizes its role as a masterful hunter, bringing an extra sense of realism and movement to the scene.
My most ambitious project yet—capturing an eagle's true majesty in flight.
