Original bronze sculpture by Ailene Fields · Animal study · Available at Marcolina's Fine Arts Gallery, Tampa, Florida · Ships worldwide
Fields renders the ox low and grounded, weight settled through its legs and a stillness that reads as strength rather than rest. The ox has stood in for labor and endurance across cultures for centuries, and Fields leans into that symbolic weight without over-explaining it. The form does the talking.
At 10 by 5 by 6 inches, it is one of the larger animal studies in this group, with enough scale to hold its own on a desk or mantle. The bronze surface is left with a naturalistic patina that lets the animal's musculature read clearly from any angle.

"My aim, sculpturally, has always been to bring softness out of apparent hardness."
Ailene Fields
About the Artist
Ailene Fields is an American sculptor working in bronze, stone, and acrylic, known for figures that draw on mythology, fairy tales, and the natural world. Born in Brooklyn, she earned a degree in English Literature and Greek Mythology from Lehman College before training as a self-taught potter.
She went on to study the human figure under master sculptor Bruno Lucchesi at the New School for Social Research in New York, where she developed the technical foundation behind her animal and figurative bronzes. She is a co-founder of the Skylands Museum of Art in Lafayette, New Jersey, and co-owner of The Compleat Sculptor in New York City.
Her work has been shown in solo museum exhibitions at the Bergen Museum of Art and Science and the Appleton Museum of Art, and is held in private collections across the country. Fields continues to teach stone carving, passing on the discipline behind her own decades of practice.
