Skycutter, 1/1
A nighthawk pursues a moth in this dynamic sculpture. It is one of two nighthawks in the Aloft and At Rest exhibition; (the other is Day Roost). Tony Angell’s passion for nature began in childhood, through exploring and studying wildlife and his artistic talent is innate. He developed and strengthened his skills through drawing and sculpting from life, often through study of the wild creatures he has rehabilitated. Angell’s paintings, drawings, and sculptures capture the characteristics and gestures of his subjects, beautifully communicating moments he has witnessed in the wild.
