Item Description

"Black Bear," a unique sculpture of a bear made by local artist Lee Ross from Hovland, MN.

Dan and Lee's paths crossed in 1972 as students at the University of Wisconsin - River Falls. Subsequently a collaboration began that continues to this day. They work side by side from initial design to the finished sculpture and prints. Their work ranges from small hand held clay pieces to large scale commissions carved out of granite.

Moving to Hovland, Minnesota on the shore of Lake Superior had a dramatic impact on their work. New forms and shapes evolved after they observed tumultuous storms and shifting ice sheets rearrange their boulder strewn shoreline.
