Frogman Tim Cotterill bronze frog. green with gold. # 1222 of Ltd ed of 2000. 9x4 1/2x3. PROVENANCE: A Pennsylvania and Kiawah Island Private Collection. Tim Cotterill, FROGMAN, is world famous for his bronze frog collectables. He has an uncontrollable passion for frogs and loves everything about them, their faces, their webbed feet, their springy legs and their antic nature. He incorporates every possible expression, contour, and subtlety of these amphibians into his colorful enameled bronzes. Growing up in Great Britain, he developed a lifelong love of things that go jump in the night. Says Tim, As a little boy, I always loved looking for frogs in the fields of England. Tim Cotterill apprenticed as an engineer intrigued with metalworking and soon became a master of metal sculptures. For the next ten years, he created over a thousand bird and animal sculptures in metal, many of which were sold at Sotheby's. Once he moved to Venice Beach, California, Cotterill discovered frogs as a sculptural form through which he could express his delightful sense of humor. Frogmans bronze frog, gecko and koi fish sculptures fly out of shops at an incredible rate. And, it is not just a US phenomenon as his collectors are all over the world.Wt. 2 pds
