Turkey with Corn (#112)

DiVita is an Italian-born sculptor who credits his beginnings to his early exposure to Renaissance art and an intense love of nature. As a child he migrated to Canada and then Montana. After teaching art for several years, Mr. DiVita began sculpting full time. A favorite subject matter are birds. Here he depicts a wild turkey strutting through a field of corn stubble.
