STA visited Carl Valerius at his studio at Murrumburrah in Hilltops. Carl is a sculptor who works primarily in clay, marble and bronze. His most famous work is the amazing life-size sculpture of Australia’s Greatest Warhorse, Bill the Bastard.
After a journey of years first to realise the sculpture in bronze, Bill has finally found a permanent home, installed in front of Carl’s studio in a spectacular custom built area.
Head west to the twin towns of Haden – Murrumburrah and discover the amazing story of Bill and the artist who created this extraordinary monumented for yourself.
Carl welcomes visits for tours and story telling. Check the Bill the Bastard website for booking details.
