Dreaming of Tomatoes 1:6 Scale Wire Dachshund Sculpture in bronze by Sculpted Joy Beckner

"Dreaming of Tomatoes" returns as a wirehair, "Dreaming of Tomatoes" SS, Standard Smooth, was my second sculpture of a dachshund, the first to be cast in bronze, and first to be sold out. In this 1:6 scale miniature version I tweaked the hip to give it a bit more definition and of course, added whiskers and eyebrows!

"Cuddling Dachshunds"

“I still remember the day I walked into Chaparral and saw ‘Dreaming of Tomatoes.’ I picked it up and never put it down. So, when I saw ‘Siesta’ in the same patina - I just had to have it. I wanted them to be together, so when I saw this position...well, putting them in a wooden bowl just seemed like the perfect way to let them snooze in peace.” Gayla Wiedenheft, MT. Please, commission me to make “Siesta” in Wirehair so you can have two cuddling Wires.

Each “Dreaming of Tomatoes” Wire is made by hand, one at a time in the USA.

Each is signed, numbered and includes my mark, Joy Beckner Bronze Sculptor.

Enjoy!
