Bruce Little has worked in various international spaces that has allowed him to connect with various artists, conservationists and businesses from around the world. His influence on the local art scene has made him a household name amongst art lovers and collectors alike.
In recent years, Little took the huge undertaking of constructing a monumental size lion sculpture which is a commission piece from Ceawlin Thynn and Viscount Weymouth of the Longleat family estate, who Little met during one of his trips to the United Kingdom.
The piece was created to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Longleat Safari Park, the first of its kind in the UK. Though he had previously sculpted numerous life size and larger than life size pieces, this monumental lion is, to date, his biggest sculpture yet.
Off the back of the enormous success of the Longleat venture, Bruce was invited to have the monumental lion auctioned off at the Leonardo DiCaprio Foundation Gala event in St Tropez.
The event was held in July 2016 where the piece achieved an auction bid of USD1 Million. The funds raised were donated by Bruce to the Foundation which focuses on various environmental projects.
Bruce, whose sculptures range from miniatures to life size and larger, has exhibited internationally for the last 11 years with his bronzes in collections on all five continents as limited editions and private commissions.
