About Me
- Dollores
- Salt Lake City, Utah, United States
- Dollores,is a native of Salt Lake City, Utah. She began her sculpure career after she and her husband Dean had raised six children. Dollores served as a docent at Hogle Zoo in Salt Lake for several years, where she gained a great love for the animals of our earth. Because of this she has chosen them as the subject for her work. The story behind Dollores is extraordinary, and one to be shared with the public. A self taught sculptor. Dollores began her work at age 60 now 82, she is still active in the arts community. She had the honor of being selected for the years from 1994-95 to 1997-98 to place life size pieces of her work in Cypress Gardens Endangered Species Scupture Park, in Winter Haven FL. This was the beginning of creating life size sculptures for Dollores. She has been able to sell her work throughout the United States, and has recieved awards on several of her pieces.

Oh, my goodness--This sculpture takes my breath away...I love black cats. Not for any nefarious reason, except it started as a traditional joke with my Dad. Dad had a black cat named Snow. When I was a little girl I loved a cat named Snow--and now my own children have a black cat named, of course Snow--though they do call her "Snowbunny!"
ReplyDeleteThis wonderful Jade cat looks just like our Snowbunny--and it fills my eyes--which is the greatest compliment I can give. ((hugs))
this piece is beautifull I love cats so much but have never been abile to draw them, and I can not sculpt at all. infortionly I am slowly lousing my sight, and one day have to put down my pencils. thats way I think that your sculpture is so amazing becouse even those who have lost thier sight can still enjoy it through touch.
