The Ohrmann Museum is a fascinating place to visit. The yard is filled with Bill Ohrmann's creations. This is a free museum and you are welcome to view, photograph and even sit on the Turtle.
Bull Elk was created by talented artist Bill Ohrmann in 2006. It is made of welded steel. The Bull Elk stands 6 feet plus at the shoulder. The antlers were copied exactly from a set taken in the Ovando area in 1935.
The Bull Elk, also known as American elk and wapiti, he is the second largest deer. A bull elk's antlers may reach 4 feet above his head, so that the animal towers 9 feet.
According to Mrs. Ohrmann, Bill was a rancher and artist all of his life. Though he has produced some amazing sculptures, he now limits his creativity to painting that he sells in the gallery.
As a note: all of the sculptures that are on display are "Not for Sale" and placed there purely for the enjoyment and appreciation of Mr. Ohrmann's talents.
