Description
Toadstool by Richard Cooper Bronze
After a delectable woodland feast, it’s time for a quick groom on the perfect perch, a plump toadstool! This well-fed mouse by Michael Simpson, is cast in resin bronze and carefully hand painted using fine artist’s oils. The toadstool is subtly highlighted with green and gold to bring the fine sculpted details to the fore.
The mouse is packed in a branded box with a full colour booklet detailing the complete collection.
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.
