Deborah Butterfield

Born on the same day as the 75th running of the Kentucky Derby, Butterfield partly credits that birth date as an inspiration for her subject matter. The artist earned her B.A. in 1971 and her M.F.A. in 1973 at the University of California, Davis, California. She began crafting horses out of scrap metal in the 1980’s. Currently she works in bronze that has the appearance of driftwood and limbs. Cast in individual sections and then welded together, the work has a great sense of presence and power.

Her works can be found in the collections of the Dallas Museum of Art, Denver Art Museum, San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, Smithsonian American Art Museum, and the Seattle Art Museum.
