I recently completed a number of sculptures for the City of Fort Stockton, Texas.  The photos below give an indication of what it took to lay out, cut and install the two larger groupings of these silhouettes--a column of cavalry and a small hunting party of Comanche.  The cavalry sculpture is titled "Marching to Fort Stockton", and the Comanche are called "Look to the East".  These two groupings sit east and west of the city just off Interstate 10.  They are part of an ongoing project to promote Fort Stockton's history and increase tourism.

When you visit Fort Stockton...

A company of U.S. Cavalry follows their captain toward Fort Stockton--and home-- in "Marching to Fort Stockton".  These silhouettes can be seen just south of Interstate-10, about one and a half miles east of the Mararthon exit.  Look for the old adobe airplane hangar near the highway.  The silhouettes are to the south.

  The Comanche are west of town about a mile and a half.  They too, are south of the Interstate, sitting on a small hill.  Titled "Look to the East",  the leader of a small hunting party uses sign language to alert his friends to possible danger--soldiers  marching toward the fort.

Black-and-white images of these sculptures will be a large part of Fort Stockton's new ad campaign to attract visitors.  Look for billboards featuring these images coming soon on I-10 between Kerrville and El Paso.

And be sure and stop by the Chamber of Commerce and Visitor's Center, located at the old railroad depot.  There you will find more sculptures--part of the Fort Stockton Tourism Enhancement Project.  It is right across the street from "Paisano Pete", the world's largest roadrunner statue!  The friendly people at the Chamber will be more than happy to help you find all of the historic sites in Fort Stockton....
