About the Artwork
The exhilaration of youth is joyfully represented in these companion pieces of two children on bicycles. The older child appears to speed along with hands raised in the air as the second child races her. A third sculpture of a dog runs beside them.
About the Artist
Gary Price
"I hope I can assist the world in visualizing a place where fences and boundaries, both real and imagined, are non-existent; a place where bias and prejudice are long forgotten; and finally, a place where acts of kindness, mutual respect, and love are everyday happenings." – Gary Lee Price
In more than 25 years as a professional sculpture Gary Lee Price still believes in “perpetual studenthood” and also believes in passing his gifts and knowledge on to others. His works are collected throughout the world and can be seen in Iceland, England, China, France, and throughout the United States. In 2001 he received the “Governor’s Mansion Artist Award” from Governor Leavitt of Utah. Mr. Price is a member of the National Sculpture Society.
