Art Wells
East Stroudsburg, Pennsylvania
Art’s first love was music. He graduated from Berklee College of Music and played drums on the Las Vegas Strip for fifteen years. Art then discovered a natural talent for sculpting and fell in love with carving marble. To him, sculpting allows him to capture beautiful emotion like music does, but in a way that is frozen in time.
Inspired by the masters Canova and Rodin, Art’s style is figurative sculpture. Over the last thirty years, he has won first place in Sculptural Pursuit magazine’s national competition, had work acquired by the Longview Museum of Fine Arts in Texas for permanent display, and taught sculpting at the Creative Arts Center of Dallas.
