About Vincent...

Vincent has been sculpting in rural Texas for many years.  He has had the opportunity to learn a good deal from sculptors and foundrymen in the American Southwest and abroad.  Vincent believes in keeping the tradition of  "creativity through artisanship" alive. Whether he is working on a wildlife sculpture, a devotional piece or a work dealing with the fantastic, he is grateful to be a link in the long-standing tradition of image-making and artisanship.

Vincent's inspiration comes from several places including the natural world, literature, traveling and unique encounters.  These influences have all contributed to the endless collection of images and visuals that are catalogued in Vincent's mind. He is thankful to be able to select some of the finer ones and translate them, as best as possible, into the realm of 3-D.
