JANEL MAHER LADY LIBERTY

14” x 12.5” x 6” — Bronze $1,850

My inspiration for the bronze “Lady Liberty” was from a song called “Lady Liberty” which I show on my web site. I thought of the Statue of Liberty and the words to the song and of course my interpretation was to create this sculpture.

JANEL MAHER • WAOW Associate • TN • janelmaher.fineartstudioonline.com Growing up in Colorado, I was always fascinated with horses. This life study has spurred my imagination in sculpting and painting what I know best, one of our greatest treasures: the horse. My wish is to capture the heart, spirit and conformation of my subject. Many of my ideas for my art are inspired from my own horses, a song, poem or just a comment I have heard. Also, I am very in spired by the history and legends of the horse! I love creating a new piece but most of all I want the viewer not to see cold metal or an empty canvas….but a subject that breathes life!
