S366 Horn Petroglyph
Copper Horn Petroglyph by Arizona artist Dale Anderson. The 28” x 20” sculpture is handmade and no two are exactly alike. A hanger on the back allows the sculpture to stand or hang.
Most southwestern rock art pre-dates modern written history and had its origins hundreds, perhaps thousands, of years ago, created by the people of the region. Most of the rock art is in the form of petroglyphs. These are created by etching, pecking or scraping designs into the dark patina found on the surface of sandstone and other rocks.

About the artist
Dale Anderson
Dale Anderson studied law at UCLA and served in Viet Nam with the 82nd Airborne division.
At the age of 30, he left the law profession and turned his full attention to art, his minor in college and his avocation since childhood. Dale has mastered various art media, such as painting in oils and acrylic as well as sculpting in clay. His foremost interest is in metal art. His work reflects an evolution of impressions through refinement and a deep understanding of his subjects.
Dale’s imaginative style embraces a variety of subjects, ranging from earth objects to ethereal conjuring. He sculpts with the welding torch, crating each piece and maintaining control from start to finish. No two are alike. His medium is a combination of metals: steel, copper and brass with the welding torch and chemicals as his brush and palette.
Anderson’s work is displayed in private and commercial collections worldwide:
- Western Airlines
- Turbo Resources
- Greyhound
- Exxon
- Sony
- Olin
- Anheuser-Bush
This renowned artist’s need for solitude has taken him to the Rim Country of Arizona where he and his domesticated wolf, Wolfen, enjoy the various stimuli nature provides and the time and space to enjoy and interprets them in metal.
