"I
want my work to have life and a feeling of movement, to go beyond
the simple materials that comprise its structure. If I'm
working from a live subject, I try to find out about them and to
learn what makes them individual and exceptional. I'm always
happy to have a client's input and I consider them a very useful
part of the creative process. Whether you decide to buy one of
my sculptures or to commission a work, you will have my full
attention and commitment as an artist."

Dorothy Jackson Smith
is an award-winning artist from Broad Run, Virginia. Her works have
sold throughout the United States and are currently showing in
Galleries on the east coast. She is a professional artist and
actress, as well as an avid horsewoman with four horses of her own.
Dorothy's bronzes
always capture the personality and individuality of their subjects.
Owners comment on both the beauty and quality of detail, she is able
to capture in her work. The modern steel sculptures have often been
referred to as "line drawings in air". It is the deceptive
simplicity of these pieces, which makes them so appealing. These
modern works are often bought by people with strong backgrounds in
design or art and have been purchased by graphic artists,
photographers and private collectors.
The artist's latest
bronze was of Karen and David O'Connor on Prince Panache and
Giltedge. This sculpture gave her a chance to create an interesting
dynamic among four subjects. It was also a great privilege to have
sculpted these two of the country's top Olympic athletes on such
impressive horses.
