"America's lion (mountain lion, cougar, puma) is a skilled and formidable predator, its favorite prey being deer. But when a good-sized meal isn't available, smaller snacks are welcome. Although not terribly fond of water, the mountain lion will readily get wet if it means a meal! The pose depicted in this piece catches a mountain lion perched on a few rocks jutting out of the water, getting ready to swipe at a fish just out of sight below the surface. The lifesized version is meant to be installed in a small pond. What I like about this pose is that it has interesting silhouettes from every angle and makes a striking piece in an intimate setting." - Rosetta

This lifesized version of "Mountain Fishing" was commissioned by Hewlett-Packard
for their Colorado Memory Systems facility in Loveland, CO.
