It is well noteworthy of fascinating the representation of motion in sculpture, by going all out to produce a vibrant sense of energy in every animal. Doran Webb lived several years in the Philippines and gets extensive experience with driftwood, and then composed the art with the help of salvage driftwood.
Doran Webb works on a large stockpile of wood and collects the pieces that present the finest natural form of the animal and its muscle structure. He spent his childhood in the workshop of the antiques Restoration Company, run by his parents, by time passed he developed himself into an accomplished antique dealer, and also convert himself into a competent cabinet maker, with extensive experience in whittling, carving, and refinishing.
