Richard MacDonald (born 1946) is a California-based contemporary figurative artist known for his bronze sculptures. MacDonald draws and sculpts his subjects over and over often requiring models to repeat a specific dance move or spontaneous gesture. The final patinated bronze is affixed to a marble base also designed and selected by the artist as part of the overall sculptural composition.
