ã1995 by Ross Matteson   bronze and brass    36 x 32 x 14 inches   private collection

Descending Dolphins   is a partially fabricated and partially cast work.   Throughout the edition, I've made slight variations along the way, but all of them feature the cut out dolphin and vase motif.    Sometimes I think about Georgia O'Keefe when I see the deer head and antlers that can also be imagined in this design.
