Foo dog in “A Thunderous Presence” rises atop a colorful embroidered ball. Its body and hair are in dynamic motion. The cloud it rises upon is on a high polish surface, revealing the golden liuli color streams from within, adding liveliness of the creation. Different from the classic playful foo dog, this sculpture shows the mighty side. Standing on its powerful hind legs, it grasps the ball with its forelegs. With a majestic and confident gaze, it opens its month for a thunderous roar. It spins the ball in perpetuity, rolling in fortune, a symbol of luck at hand.
