Bashful Bear Sculpture

A disarming stillness defines this small composite sculpture from John Richard, its aged finish lending the figure a weathered patina that speaks of time and quiet character. Standing twelve inches tall, the Bashful Bear occupies its footprint with an unassuming presence — the kind of sculptural accent that rewards a considered shelf, console, or cabinet vignette. The aged surface treatment deepens the sense of narrative, as though this bear has always belonged among collected objects of meaning.
