Gold Tinted Baby Dory

This sculpture made by Alastair Gibson and Carbon Art 45 is a smaller version of the original ‘carbon dory’ sculpture which was produced from a commission by the Drang Gallery in Padstow, Cornwall, the UK home of the John Dory fish. It moves away from the usual fast streamlined fish that I sculpt and shows the stylish details of this ancient oceanic creature.
