Happy birthday, Henri!

11th February 2012 | Closed

It’s Henri’s birthday this week. Well, probably not. I don’t really know when he was born. But, it was a year ago this week that I adopted him from a rescue group. Henri was found wandering the streets, in quite bad shape, weighing in at 3.5 pounds. I didn’t know I was looking for a [...]

Happy New Year!

30th December 2011 | Closed

In celebration of 2012, I’ve decided to try a new way of selling my sculpture. My friend Joseph, my fine art rep for many years, has decided to close his gallery and move on to new adventures. I am currently working on a large scale installation, and not creating new gallery pieces at the moment. [...]


You Are My Work of Art!

3rd August 2011 | Closed

“You Are My Work of Art”, my new book now available at amazon.com, has been in development for many years. The fine art world is difficult for some to appreciate, the notion being pervasive that it is hard to understand, and beyond the average person to grasp. It frightens many away from something that has [...]


Dinosaur Train!

20th April 2011 | Closed

I illustrated a couple of Dinosaur Train books a few months ago that just got listed on Amazon. Dinosaur Train is produced by the Jim Henson Company. It’s pretty cute stuff. Children’s television has taken some giant leaps since I got into this business, and what the Henson Company creates is at the top of [...]

I have a new property making its debut at Surtex. The goal of my Nature Baybee project is to help manufacturers and others create products that inspire children to explore nature and spend more time in the great outdoors, experiencing free and unstructured play. As many of you know, there is a nationwide movement afoot [...]


Sculpting Timmy

3rd February 2011 | 2 Comments

I spent some time at the foundry this week, checking the waxes for the portrait of Samantha. I’m looking forward to posting the finished bronze here soon. Meanwhile, I’ve been working on a new project, sculpting young kids full figure, 6″ tall, in a Disney-esque style. Since I have created so many images for Disney [...]

I have another new title shipping this year, published by Running Press. It’s not available for pre-order quite yet. But, the final cover has been approved and it will be printed soon. This title is a fun loving first look at fine art for little ones. I’ll post a longer story about its origins, as [...]
