1.Introduction of santa barbara dolphin fountain
Santa Barbara dolphin fountain is very famous. It is created by the sculptor Bud Bottoms. Bottoms became a determined environmental activist in 1969 after experiencing a severe oil blowout in Santa Barbara, polluting the ocean and destroying local beaches, killing seabirds and marine life. In the 1980s, Bottoms created the iconic dolphin family sculpture on the top of the fountain at the Santa Barbara stern pier. This sculpture not only shows the wonders of the marine world, but also is a memorial sculpture.
This dolphin sculpture is very beautiful. No matter where it is placed, it exists like a focus. Its green color is as beautiful as the color of the ocean. It is full of vitality. We have rich experience in the reproduction of famous sculptures.
