Los Angeles-based artist Steven Harrington is set to release the largest version of his signature bow tie-wearing sculpture of Mello dog to date. Steve Harrington's Mello dog sculptures are visually bold and feature smaller pieces and vinyl figures measuring a foot in height. Furthermore, the large sculpture will come in five feet of fiberglass-reinforced polymer.
Steve Harrington's newest and largest Mello dog sculpture will measure 5 feet tall x 2 feet wide x 1 feet 10 inches deep. As a result, the Mello dog sculpture is large enough to be seen as life-size sufficient in contrast to actual human proportions. The large sculpture is dressed in a teal bow tie while the second includes middle fingers that are twisted in an exaggerated way to form a peace sign. The sculpture will be released on May 5 at 10 am PST.
