Mark is a sculptor and resin artist from Cedarburg, Wisconsin.
His recent works re-imagine nature through resins. Exploding with vivid color and unique playfulness, Mark displays surreal worlds using sculpture and mold making to create an altered, organic and intricate beauty that is both unnatural and natural.
Mark is always expanding the capabilities of the resin medium into his artwork, creating visuals that have never been seen before.
Mark graduated from MIAD with a BFA in sculpture and apprenticed at the fine art foundry Hartbronze. In 1990, Mark started Replica Masters Studios which has since been providing mold making, design, casting and sculpting services to artists, museums and entrepreneurs and has included clients such as Disney and Warner Brothers. For the past 10 years, he has enjoyed designing and producing tap handles for Sprecher Brewery and other craft breweries.
Mark is also an award-winning competitive snow sculptor and has sculpted in many places including Breckenridge, Lake Tahoe, Frankenmuth and Chicago.
Mark’s work has been exhibited at the Milwaukee Art Museum, The Trout Museum of Art, The Cedarburg Cultural Center’s Main Street Gallery as has been featured in Wisconsin Painter and Sculptors shows.
