Monkey Nuts by Richard Cooper Bronze
Nuts, seeds, berries and fruits, the favourite food of mice! This plump little mouse has eaten it’s fair share of some delectable monkey nuts. After a rather large lunch, it’s time for a quick groom and maybe a short doze….
Michael Simpson has sculpted this piece with meticulous detail to both the nut shells and the endearing mouse features. The whole piece has been cast in solid bronze which compliments the subject perfectly. The mouse is hand painted with a soft colour pallet using artist’s oils.
Packed in a branded box with full colour booklet illustrating details of the full collection, this is the perfect gift for lover’s of all creatures great and small.
The company started life to design and manufacture limited edition foundry bronze sculptures and collectibles. The founder, Richard Cooper, had previously owned Country Artists Ltd, of Stratford upon Avon. A company he had also founded. This was a successful company designing and manufacturing animals, birds and a wide collection of wildlife subjects from around the world. All the sculptures were made in resin and hand painted in sizes from miniature to life size.
When the company was sold in 2004 Richard was not ready to retire and decided to start a new venture in the same arena but in bronze rather than resin as the base material.
Initially, Richard decided to develop comparatively large sculptures of wildlife studies and figurative work suitable for art galleries in contrast to the smaller subjects from the previous company, which were sold to gift shops.
