Sculpting School

When I was 19 I was a kid like thousands of others looking for a start but not having a clue where to begin. I wanted to build monsters and create a museum like no other but had no money, no mentor, or no roadmap; no connections. Four major obstacles which made the odds almost slim to none of ever producing anything difficult, much less selling anything.

As you browse through my website I want you to keep in mind I know there are thousand of sculptors and sculptures out there that are very, very, good and very, very, not so good. There are some "bad" sculptors making a good living at their work and there are some excellent sculptors starving.

I want everyone who takes my six weeks course to leave with the vigor and excitement of having discovered something within themselves to create and build any or everything I can, learn my proven, unique and fast techniques, where to get materials wholesale and where to sell your work. In other words I want you to feel as if you started out on a mission to explore a new world and discovered many, many wonderful things along the way which will lead you on an adventure of even more discovery, and perhaps making a good living at doing what I'm doing. If this wouldn't happen for you after I've trained you I would consider it my failure and I don't like failing. But you have to want it.

My courses will teach you how to begin simple sculpting to building more advanced, huge sculptures and props out of foam and fiberglass, as well as life casting, mold making, design, repair work, painting techniques; all aspects of the business.

I've been doing this 25 years and have created my own techniques for producing a good quality figure faster than anyone else I know in the business. I've made lots of money doing exactly what I enjoy the most and am excited to be offering this knowledge to those who wish to carry on the craft in a business aspect, repair figures at theme parks, watermarks, etc. or just to learn how to make things for your own yard, house, or friends.

Searching online I have found no other school or workshop that offers anything close to what I can do for you. I have heard people say they've learned more hanging out with me at my workshop in one week than all the years (and money) they spent going to various colleges and art schools.

Being an artist and having all sorts of degrees is just fine, but at this time I offer no accreditations. I have found that employers in the field I'm in care about the product and the ability to produce it for them, not the paper saying I have training in the field. When they hand you a signed piece of paper after completing your accomplishments, you'd be foolish to frame it and hang it on the wall. It's not a diploma, it's a check.

Again there is no better way to make a living or just live life than doing what you love. I promise I can get you started.
