This is a great piece to add to any Howard Pierce collection. Designer Bio:Howard Pierce (b.1912; Chicago, Illinois - d.1994) Howard Pierce studied at the Chicago Art Institute, California's Pomona College, and the University of Illinois. He worked for and learned from William Manker whom began his career with the Batchelder-Wilson Tile Company in Los Angeles. Howard and his wife and business partner, Ellen, lived in Claremont California during the early years of his work and later moved to Joshua Tree, California, a desert community near Palm Springs. He was a creator of ceramic birds and animals among other mediums. He even made some of his porcelain pieces using some Mount St. Helens ash! He was very fond of the wildlife and found that porcelain to be the best material to use for his wildlife figures. Howard Pierce put Joshua Tree, California on the map with his now-highly sought after ceramic and metal art work. He loved the natural desert and that love is reflected in his work. His affection for Joshua Tree was great! Many of his public sculptures are visible throughout the town and from the roadway including outside the Cultural Center, the Hi-Desert Museum, the Hi-Desert Medical Center, and a famous sculpture atop a hill overlooking the former Pierce estate.
