Kitty
Cantrell
"Award-winning artist and environmentalist Kitty Cantrell
is known for her striking sculptures of North American wildlife.
Intricately designed and detailed, her Mixed Media sculptures
capture expressions of animals that have never known human
touch. When asked what inspired her to start sculpting, Kitty
replied, Ive done it since I was little. Its the only thing
Im good at-its what Ive done ever since I can remember."
Wolves, eagles and humpback whales are a few of the subjects
this native Californian has chosen to sculpt since beginning
her professional career.
Kitty
is one of the few American artists today who has a natural
talent for capturing the animals she chooses to sculpt as
only nature knows them. Cantrell begins the sculpting process
with only a general idea of what she is about to create. When
asked where her ideas come from, Kitty confessed that "some
of my best ideas come from my collectors." To ensure
the authenticity and accuracy of her sculptures, Kitty spends
numerous hours researching the animals paying close attention
to subtle details such as the wing span or shape of a tail.
"I like working on subjects with which I am fairly unfamiliar,"
she says. "That makes me study up on them and that keeps
it interesting. The busier I am, the happier I am."
Kitty
produces a rough sculpture out of soft clay to check for composition
and form. She then painstakingly forms a master sculpture
that is to scale and anatomically correct. This second sculpture
is sent to the Legends/Genesis foundry in Los Angeles, California,
where a resin cast is made and the manufacturing process begins.
Cantrell
believes that her sculptures are a way for people to better
understand the earths wild creatures. "A lot of stuff
that happens to wildlife is so unintentional. If my sculptures
can make people think about wildlife and appreciate the importance
of it, then maybe they will feel compelled to help."
When asked where she would like to see herself in the distant
future, Kittys love for wildlife and, in particular, wildlife
rehabilitation, is at the forefront of her thoughts as she
tells us that she plans to be "sitting on a mountain
top with broken and battered animals around that Im trying
to put back together." Demonstrating her commitment to
animals and wildlife, Kitty donates a portion of the proceeds
from her art to the Nature Conservancy, the World Wildlife
Fund and the Grounded Eagle Foundation."
