"Dottie", a striking new bronze sculpture, pays tribute to the legendary Dottie Frazier, a true pioneer of open-water diving. Capturing her fearless spirit, this piece portrays a strong, confident figure, embodying resilience and determination.
As the first female scuba diving instructor and a trailblazer in an era when diving was a man’s world, Dottie Frazier shattered expectations and carved a path for future generations of women.
This sculpture encourages all who see it to embrace their own adventurous spirit, push past limitations, and dive headfirst into our dreams.
These diving girl sculptures captures the essence and epitome of woman.
Beautiful and strong.
It’s the shared camaraderie of these experiences, encouraging and believing in each other and ourselves.
It is not just about the act of swimming - it is a celebration of life.
A bronze sculpture stands proudly, as a timeless testament.
Its form, frozen in time, captivates viewers with its intricate details and graceful contours. The rich patina of the bronze surface tells a story of age and endurance, a silent witness to the passage of time.
Each curve and line whispers of the creator's hands, breathing life into the inert metal - whether capturing a moment of triumph, a fleeting emotion, or an eternal truth, the bronze sculpture invites contemplation and reflection, bridging the gap between art and reality.
With its enduring presence, it stands as a symbol of beauty and strengt, transcending generations to inspire awe and admiration for centuries to come.
Mounting options - timber, sandstone, brick, rock, concrete or any solid surface.
