Art, Conservation, and Giving Back - Dave Richardson Art

It’s not all that often we run across someone that is incredibly talented and also wants to give back to conservation. Dave Richardson is one of those people. In 2009, Dave opened Richardson Studio and his work is now in public and private collections throughout North America, Europe, and Asia.

As an avid angler, Dave chose to give a portion of his sales of two unique Colorado Trout Unlimited bronze buckles to CTU. These highly durable casted pieces, one a cutthroat trout, and the other an Adams fly, are custom items made per order.

The wait is over! The custom Colorado Trout Unlimited hand-sculpted, bronze belt buckles are available for presale. There are two versions, one featuring a cutthroat trout and the other an Adams dry fly. Both are custom pieces made by local sculptor, Dave Richardson. A portion of the proceeds will go directly to support Colorado Trout Unlimited. Click the button below to order your own or purchase it as a gift! Thank you for your support of local businesses and river conservation in Colorado.

The artist, Dave Richardson, is a native Coloradan, a dedicated fly angler and a professional full time sculptor. Learn more about Dave and his work here.
