Investment Cast Bronze
The art of sculptor Steve Posson reflects the essence of American culture as he captures life in motion. His work depicts racers, mechanics, couples, children, and others who interact with automobiles, motorcycles, and motorboats from this era and an earlier time. Posson's art can be found in galleries and in public and private collections throughout the United States and abroad.
His latest endeavor, "Fathers' Day," depicts a happy dad with son and dog in his '32 Ford out for a spin. It will be ready and in bronze for the Los Angeles Roadster Show in June. Folks will be able to order this piece semi-personalized, that is, with particular bits and pieces that set their particular '32 apart from somebody else's.
