Greg Congleton | Sculptor - Original Bronze and Steel Sculptures
Description
I was raised on a cattle ranch along the headwaters of the Crooked River of central Oregon. Granddad homesteaded there in the early 1900’s. It provided an excellent foundation for my 2 older brothers and I. At 2-1/2 miles from the nearest neighbor and 60 miles from town we learned how to nail, bolt, and weld together solutions to all kinds of things.
Wrangling cattle at 3 AM, repairing miles and miles of barbed wire fences, and putting up 1,000 ton of hay were the anvil on which we were shaped.
By the end of grade school the artist in me was starting to itch so I sent in a drawing from a match book cover of the “draw me girl” and got started with an art correspondence course. That, along with later studies in graphic design, taught me the fundamentals of drawing.
