The Glen Wild Studio
Services
The Spirit of Glen Wild, white bisque, modeled in 1998
The Glen Wild Studio is not a service. We foster various activities. Art work is produced and may be for sale, or created on commission. Education, consulting, exhibiting, curating, collecting are some of the separate threads of activity. Contact me if you have a passionate calling to art, and want to sidestep the commercial art world and enter into living relationships with freely given ideas.
