A Race With The Stork By Ken Payne

Offered for your consideration is A Race with the Stork, a bronze by Ken Payne. This dramatic sculpture captures the old Doctor's "hell bent for leather" ride to arrive before the stork does. The Doctor's left hand grips the reins and his mount's mane as his right hand applies the whip to keep the horse at full run. The sculptor has captured a critical action that must have been common in the sparsely settled west and it would make a great focal piece for your home or office. Numbered 27/50.
Ken Payne was raised on a large ranch in New Mexico. His cowboy life in the Southwest inspired his choice to use Native Americans, pioneers, cowboys and wildlife as the subjects of his sculptures in order to convey a sense of frontier life.
