A life-size bronze sculpture of Abraham Lincoln now stands, well sits, as a permanent community landmark, giving residents of Papillion, Nebraska and visitors a tangible link to the 16th President and the transformative era of westward expansion. The bronze sculpture shows Lincoln seated on an 8 foot wide granite bench holding a map of the Union Pacific Railway, representing the historic Pacific Railway Act of 1862 that Lincoln signed into law that began the Transcontinental Railroad.

Outdoor bronze sculptures honoring members of the military, historical, athletes and political figures

I'm originally from Davis, California and I spent several years in San Francisco as an art student at the Academy of Art College (now University). During art school, I focused on developing an understanding of the human body through life drawing, painting, sculpture, human anatomy, and composition. I also gained an appreciation for art history and animation. The training and skills I acquired as an art student were instrumental in taking the next step and working as a sculptor's assistant for professionals in California and Colorado before I was able to establish my own working studio.

Since 2008, I've maintained a sculpture studio in the vibrant arts community of Loveland, Colorado. There, I create bronze sculptures that honor "larger than life" subjects - everything from the military and historical figures to athletes and political leaders. I've permanently installed over fifty outdoor bronze monuments throughout the United States.

In 2020, I created an 11-foot wide bronze relief with laser-etched black granite to honor and remember the McPherson Globe Refiners, the first basketball team to win Olympic gold (in Berlin, 1936). This curved relief sculpture is now permanently installed at the McPherson Community Building in Kansas, serving as an important work of art commemorating basketball and Olympic history.

And since the summer of 2024, I've been the proud owner of SculptureDepot.net, one of the country's most popular sculpture supply store. I'm honored to continue offering great products and expert assistance for artists at every level.
