For your consideration is a limited run original Allyson Vought Taz bronze sculpture. Allyson Vought began her career in art like most children, finger painting or crayons on the wall and of course the obligatory hand in the clay or mud, the usual kids stuff. In 1973 Allyson sculpted her first piece as a get-well offering for her significant other. Manipulating the clay, there soon appeared a caricature of a bunny rabbit holding flowers. This proved to be so popular; other critters were soon popping up as gifts for friends. Allyson's love of Disney's Fantasia, and the rich history of the Disney Studio was the inspiration for her first sculptures. Allyson began creating bronzes of her sculpts that were offered as limited editions through the Disneyana convention and Walt Disney World. Her most recognized work is the 10 character panels for the Warner Brothers flagship Store in NYC. Each panel measured 10' long by 5' high and depicts Warner Brothers animation thru the years. She likes to call it her Mt. Rushmore of projects. This limited edition run was supposed to go up to 250 but less than 50 were ever made. Originally intended to be a painted piece the bronze was ultimately done in a monochromatic finish. Per the artists note the bike that Taz is riding was modeled after a Harley Davison but due to a licensing issue could not be marked as such. The bronze is numbered 25/250 and measures 16 ½” x 8 ¾” x 16”.
