in the Park shows.
Gerald
Balciar
Born in northern Wisconsin, Gerry has always had a fascination
for animal art. A quiet, soft spoken man, he prefers to portray
the gentle side of nature in his bronze and stone sculptures.

Jack
Kreutzer
Born in South Dakota, Jack knew at an early age what he wanted
to be when he grew up. Today he still approaches his art and his
life with a boyish zeal and enthusiasm for every new adventure.
His work often has a sense of playful whimsy.
Nicholas
Moffett
Born in San Diego, Nick spent his early years in Nebraska, both
studying and teaching art. Although he believes there is no subject
matter he is unable to master in clay, he always seems to return
to the figure.
Dennis
Sohocki
Born in the industrial Midwest, Dennis spent several years exploring
the world after graduating from college. The simplicity and power
of the primitive art of the Alaskan natives appealed to him and
later inspired his contemporary abstract sculptures.
George
Walbye
Born in Wyoming, George spent his early career years in education
and sales. This self taught sculptor is best noted for his contemporary
bowls and lidded pots which use elements inspired by American
Indian art. George also is a founder of the Sculpture in the Park
show and had the first piece installed in Benson Park.
Garland
Weeks
Born in Wichita Falls, Garland studied agriculture and spent his
younger years on the professional rodeo circuit. His love of the
West is evident in his representational sculptures that capture
the unique brand of people and places he has come to know so well.
Curtis
Zabel
Born in northwestern Colorado, Curtis has spent a lifetime on
his ranch raising cattle. His deep feeling for the outdoors and
his western heritage have been the inspiration for his wildlife
bronze.
