Wildlife Wonders – Fine Gifts & Home Decor

Joe Slockbower

Joe Slockbower has emerged from Southern California to become one of America's premier wildlife artists. After studying art in Europe, Slockbower mastered the complicated "Lost Wax Process," a 6,000-year-old process in which molten bronze is transformed into a lasting work of art. Mill Creek Sculptures by Joe Slockbower often present the detailed bust of a single endangered animal such as an eagle or a panda bear, while others present group dynamics of animals: a family of wolves or the relationship of a mother bear to her cub. Slockbower has won numerous awards and received recognition throughout his career for his ability to powerfully portray endangered species that evoke a strong desire to preserve the natural beauty of the world.
