About the Item

Spirit of the Thunderbird bronze by Chris Navarro. Open edition. Piece features a Native American man with bird style headdress dancing on a drum. Extremely well crafter and well done. Walnut pedestal revolving base. Cast 1994. 41"H x 25" with base. A sculptor of cowboy rodeo figures, plains Indians, and wildlife as well as other images of the west, Chris Navarro had first-hand experience with his subject matter when he was a rodeo competitor at Casper College, Wyoming. He has remained a resident of Casper, but in 1999 opened a gallery in Taos, New Mexico. Navarro was born into a military family, and during his childhood they molded about every three years while his father climbed the army ladder. At age 16 in Spain, he began rodeo riding. After high school, he returned to the United States and settled in Casper.
