Earth Goddess Sculpture by Richard Hallier

Internationally known and collected artist Ricard Hallier has become one of the most prolific sculptors of our time. Specializing in life-size, figurative bronze, he has completed 7 figures a year on average for the past decade. He has also made numerous smaller scale versions of his more popular pieces available in bronze and cast marble.

His dedication to the female form, dancers and athletes has won him high honors, and a place in collections around the world. The recent expansion into sculptures of children, foundtain peices and monumental public commissions and memorials shows Richard's continuing artistic growth, and drive to create more new, beautiful and dynamic works that have become his trademark.
