Forrest "Bud" Tucker
SCULPTURE
-
My name is Forrest Tucker, my friends and family call me Bud. I am a Bronze Sculptor and former Welder Fabricator at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. In 2019 I was commissioned by the Speedway to sculpt and cast original Bronze Bricks for the Legendary four time winners of the Indy 500, those bronze bricks are installed at the finish line "yard of bricks"
My true passion is Sacred and portrait sculptures. I also express myself in an organic way through the abstract. My sculpting background includes 40+ years of metal and casting experience, with studies from various masters of clay, wood, steel and stone sculpture including 5 years of study from the masters of the Indianapolis Art Center’s steel and stone sculpture department. My current studies includes a Master class in classical drawing and art composition Note: Photo above : Tria Pnevmata (Three Spirits) Award winning Best of sculpture or 3 Dimensional mixed media and best metal sculpture Indianapolis Art Center 2014
