Mark is a gifted storyteller; he stages his sculpture around
the stories his characters portray. His style is highly detailed
realism, his work has a strong physical presence, whether
an aggressive athlete, or a pensive older person or shy child.
The ability to capture a moment in time best describes his
work as a sculptor.
A native of Holdrege, Nebraska, Mark graduated from the University
of Nebraska in Kearney before traveling in Europe and the
Mediterranean, where he decided to make sculpture his life's
work. He moved to Colorado in 1982, where he began his highly
successful career.
Mark is a member of the National Sculpture Society and Allied
Artists of America. He makes his home near Loveland with his
wife Elizabeth and their three children. His numerous accomplishments

over 100 cities, including Statuary Hall in the Capital Building,
