Portrait sculpture has been a great historic
part of the art form. Emperors, generals, popes, presidents, and
high society members have all chosen to have their visage immortalized.
I began portrait work as part of my studies in Paris.
Frank,
featured below, was one of my first portrait works - the portrait
of my friend the painter, Frank Bruchmann. While in France we
exchanged portraits, and I still have his portrait painting of
me hanging proudly in my studio.
On my return to the United States I received a commission for
a bust of the late Massachusetts Congressman Silvio O. Conte
as well as a relief portrait of art patron Kitty Lichtenstein.
I have continued to sculpt portraits of my friends and loved
ones along with commissioned portraits for others.
Some additional portraits that I have done recently include
“Portrait of Vincent,” “Seagull (Heather Jorgensen),”
and “Odyssey (Val).”
With a portrait I work very closely with the people involved
to achieve artistic success that will be perfect in the final
sitting. Please call our office at (413) 238-7755 for additional
