About the Artist
Tim Cherry grew up in the Canadian Rockies, where he developed a love of wildlife and the outdoors. At age 19, he worked with taxidermist Forest Hart, who specialized in sculpting mannequins. For years, Cherry was a guide in the far northern reaches of Canada. Inspired by these experiences, he developed his unique and dynamic approach to animal sculpture. In 1988, he worked with various sculptors in Loveland, Colorado, including Fritz White, learning the sculptural process that would become his life work. He has won a number of esteemed awards, including a Gold Medal from the National Sculpture Society, and the National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum's James Earl Fraser Sculpture Award.
