About: Chuck Weaver


Chuck Weaver (1939-2015) was an accomplished bronze artist who loved nature, and captured the beauty of the eagle in this unique piece. A large version of this bronze was on display in Old Town, FC for an extended time and now resides in Brighton, CO. The remaining 3 full size versions are now owned by municipalities.  Upon his passing in late 2015, this miniature bronze 'Raptoround' was donated to the RMRP by Chuck's wife Dee Weaver to assist our fundraising efforts.


In his work you will find that his interpretation of the human form, as well as various animals, often combines specific details of anatomy, movement or expression with an imaginative quality, which blends the traditional and the abstract to achieve his desired composition.

This Live Event Item offers Absentee Bidding.
