This is is a spectacular and bold, full round acrylic and bronze sculpture by Wyland. Robert Wyland is forever famous for the brilliant finishes, exquisite detail, passionate expression and many other traits that his artworks exhibit. Additionally, of all his masterpieces, often the most desired are dynamic sealife scenes. Like the one here, which gives the viewer captivating insight into Wyland's full realm of fascinating genius as it combines his most coveted subjects and finest talents. Furthermore, "Humpback Tribe" is absolutely fabulous in person, hence why with only 2000 pieces in the edition, it sold out almost immediately. You do not want to miss this authentic work from Robert Wyland, the master of marine wildlife art.

ROBERT WYLAND: The marine wildlife artist Robert Wyland, was born in 1956 in Detroit Michigan. He attended the Center for Creative Studies in Detroit majoring in painting and sculpture. Upon graduation, Wylands' professors, Jay Holland, Russell Keeter and Bill Gerard, recognized his talent and encouraged him to move to the California coast where he could further develop his art. Wyland who paints in watercolors and oils celebrates underwater sea life in his paintings and bronze sculptures. He is also known for his conservation efforts. In 1981 after being frustrated by his attempts to capture whales on canvas Wyland painted his first public art titled, "Whaling Wall." After garnering media attention for the artwork he embarked on a quest to complete 100 Whaling Walls by 2011 to raise public awareness of sea life. In 1993 he founded the Wyland Foundation to promote and protect ocean resources through life-sized public art, educational programs and support for environmental groups. In 1998 the United Nations proclaimed him the official artist for the International Year of the Ocean.

Robert Wyland's artworks have sold for very high prices at major auction houses, and even higher in Galleries, around the world. However, this is your chance to own an original work at a much better price than those retail outlets command. "Humpback Tribe", is a wonderful depiction of a group of three whales, that is saturated with acute detail throughout, making it one of the nicest sculptures by Wyland available.
