Visit our bronze sculptures galleries DON BECK, born of Italian descent in 1943, was raised in Northern California and currently has his residence and studio in Historic Baker City in northeastern Oregon. Beck is a Bronze Sculptor of realism Limited Edition bronze sculpture and pure silver sculptures; cast in very small limited editions with minute detail and the highest quality of bronze or silver castings making them more valuable and most desirable for the serious art collector and investor alike. After giving his life to the Lord in 1976 and seeking the Lord's will for his life and future.....Don was led to become a sculptor in 1982.Upon graduating high school and marrying his wife, Charlotte, Don spent 15 years working as a Construction Field Office Manager in the construction field, all the while they were raising two wonderful daughters and living on their horse ranch in Loomis, California near Sacramento. It was during this time that Don was feeling more and more unfulfilled in his work, and in 1976 Don was led to make the decision to commit his life to the Lord. Don quit his job, they sold their livestock and ranch, and as the Lord led they traveled in search of new beginnings (for which one of his sculptures is titled); all the while asking and trusting the Lord to lead them to whatever His will was for their lives and work.Don and his family were led to spend almost two years serving the Lord on a Christian Camp in Northern California working, spending time in the Word and growing in their new found faith as born again Christians and true believers in Jesus the Christ and then were led to move on. Don became an Inventor and then a Goldsmith, designing and creating one of a kind gold nugget jewelry at their new location in Joseph, Oregon which the Lord had led them to in Northeastern Oregon. It was during this time in 1982 that a bronze art casting foundry opened their doors in Joseph, Oregon. At the encouragement of another sculptor and foundry manager Don began creating wildlife belt buckles in bronze and was then encouraged by the foundry owner and well known sculptors to begin sculpting and creating bronze sculptures. Don purchased some wax and has since pursued his career as a bronze sculptor and enjoys his new life as a sculptor. Beck's subjects to date include western, equine, horses, dogs, American and African wildlife, marine life, historic, contemporary and portrait bronzes. Preciseness with close attention to minute Detail, Authenticity and Quality are his main objectives for each new piece he creates. From the very moment the Lord led Don to the bronze media, he knew in his heart that being a bronze sculptor was the Lord's will for him. Being reminded of the time when he was a young boy and how he used to ride his bike around the town square, in the small Northern California coastal town of Arcata, where he grew up, and how he always pondered a bronze monument statue of President McKinley in the center of the town square and wishing that he could one day be able to create such statues; not being aware that one day he would be led to accomplish his childhood dreams and create bronzes not only of people but of many subjects. "God is good and gives us our hearts desires," says Beck.From the onset of Beck's career his work has been recognized at juried Professional Art Shows in the Northwest and on display in Museums and Galleries. Beck is a self-taught perfectionist and feels that his talent as a Bronze Sculptor is a gift from GOD. It is his soul's desire that each new sculpture will be his very best work. Much time is under taken in extensive research of each work prior to starting and during creation to insure exact Detail and Authenticity, capturing life like qualities and even the spirit of his subjects. A Certificate of Authenticity signed by the Artist accompanies each sculpture to document its Authenticity.In addition to juried Professional Art Shows, Beck and his bronze sculptures has twice been featured in the Gallery Column of the Western Horseman Magazine, Decor Magazine and Art Business News. Beck's work is in numerous private collections and is known both Nationally and Internationally. Beck accepts Commission Work for all sizes of sculpture, Indoor and Outdoor sculpture, including Monumental....If you have a memory of a special moment, child, adult, pet dog or horse, that you would like to capture in bronze or other cast metals, please feel free to call and discuss your idea, table top or garden inspirations to monumental.
