The original design for "Six Shooter" was drawn by Hunter, age 8, of Rush City Public Library, a branch of East Central Regional Library. Hunter wrote, "He is a good guy. He is a cowboy from a movie that I like to watch with my uncl. He is half spider." The sculpture is part of the East Central Regional Library's Kids Design Glass project. Funded with money from Minnesota's Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund, the project started with a Summer Reading Program art contest for kids 5-10 years old. One child's drawing was chosen from each of East Central Library's fourteen branches. Sculptor Anthony Michaud-Scorza, of Cambridge, Minnesota, then turned each drawing into a kid-inspired blown-glass sculpture.
