Elizabeth
Berrien's amazing canine wire sculptures |

Elizabeth
Berrien
with a life-size memorial wire sculpture portrait of Boris, a great
dane owned by Donna Hover.

American
Eskimo Dog
Private commission... portrait of an elderly but beloved family
companion. This is a detail of the life-size, bas relief wall art mural. |
American
Eskimo Dog
Full view... proud and
expressive, like so
many Berrien wire portraits. In 40+
years sculpting in wire,
Berrien has created lifelike and personable sculptures of most AKC
breeds, plus several engaging "mystery mixes". |
Puli,
2-dimensional wire drawing commissioned by Puli breeder Barbara Stelz
for presentation as a feature in an AKC dog show. Since Pulis are
mainly a moving mass of dreadlocks with only the dog's nose visible,
this was an exceptionally difficult challenge for Berrien -
"as complicated as a tiger or a zebra, finding the lines for all those
subtle flows of fur."
Look closely, and se if you can follow a single strand of wire back and
forth on the Puli, as wires twist, intersect, and twist again! See how
this sculpture evolved at Works
in Progress

easy to commission a dog portrait that captures the essence of a
special companion in your life. To get started, call the studio and
tell Elizabeth about the dog you've got in mind...
