3/4 Lifesize
Scott created this one-of-a-kind bronze for us in 2010 (1/1). DUTY BOUND depicts the frontier era South Texas brush country Ranger on horseback with Winchester at the ready. This compelling bronze evokes the spirit of Texas legend Leander McNelly as he "tamed the Nueces strip."
A native of McKinney, Texas, he became a full time professional sculptor in the mid 1990s. In his youth, he became a boxer, winning a Golden Gloves championship. He earned a degree in finance from Brigham Young University and then worked in insurance and the oil and gas industry. He developed an interest in sculpture and took lessons from his uncle, Grant Speed. He also took workshops from Fritz White. In 1991, he began marketing his own western figure and genre pieces through galleries. In 1997, he moved to Murray, Utah to be near his daughter who is learning to be a sculptor.
