I am a 3 dimensional sculptor of functional art. I work in many materials including wood, stone, steel, and plastics, with modern tools like 3D Printing, laser cutting, and CNC routing, in both the workshop and virtual spaces with VR sculpting software, 3D CAD, & BIM.
I am working on building projects with clients that will improve our world. We need to design things with respect to their social, environmental, and economic impact. This ranges from recycling and manufacturing plastics at home to carefully designing furniture for people & animals that really improves their quality of life, while minimizing their environmental cost.
I am a Master of Architecture, life long sculptor, speaker of Japanese, German, and English, and dedicated to building excellent projects for my clients!
Walter Parrish
For Walter's small bicycle sculptureI had an idea for a creative piece of art but lack the personal talent to create it myself. I didn't know if a custom piece would be achievable within my budget. Russell accepted the challenge and delivered what I was looking for in a timely and budget friendly manner. He was professional and easy to work with. I am looking forward to delivering this unique birthday gift to the recipient.

For Buddha fishing poleI was very pleased with the end result of my carving project. Russell was professional, courteous, and was able to take what I wanted and make it a reality. My Buddha statue is now complete and has a place of notice on my bookshelf. Highly recommend.
