Local artist planning Truman statue for Square

Local artist planning Truman statue for Square By Mike Genet mike.genet@examiner.net The Examiner Byron Constance, the longtime Independence attorney and developer who took up artistry later in life as a hobby, says he’d long been interested in sculpting a unique Harry Truman statue.  The Independence Square Association had long hoped to depict Truman’s life with works of art around the Square.  The two paths connected this year, and by the end of the year a second Truman statue should be in place on the Square.  Constance, 94, is putting the finishing touches on his clay statue depicting Truman from World War I, in which the future 33rd president served as an artillery captain. He’ll then ship it to a foundry in Colorado, to be cast in bronze, and ideally the statue will be in place this fall on the northeast corner of Liberty Street and Maple Avenue.
