A Merger of Styles with Minkiewicz

I have a portfolio of finish work on my website organized by colors, but I've always thought it would be interesting to see them grouped together by sculpting artist. The model horse hobby creates an interesting merger of artistic styles that you don't often see in the fine art world. The compilation of a single piece that is sculpted by one artist and finished by another is a neat opportunity to merge artistic styles. I have had the privilege to paint many lovely sculptures by some fantastic artists over the years and will take the next several weeks to show my finish work by different sculpting artists. I find it might be an interesting way to see my progression as an artist over the years as well. Since I am knee deep in CPA studies and don't have time to create new work to share with you currently, I hope you'll find this a fun diversion. Hopefully my record keeping will be up to snuff and I won't leave any pieces out.

I am going to start with a very well known artist, who has served as a great artistic inspiration for me and has written many helpful articles over the years that helped to shape me as an artist: Sarah Minkiewicz-Breunig. See her website here and her blog here. Now on to the horses!
