Metal & Bronze Sculpting

$40/hr Starting at $25

I specialize in bas-relief bronze work for memorials, wall art, and recognition awards. I also create die models for numismatic and medallion work. I create professional quality work, on budget, and on time. I draw from a broad base of experience in working freelance contacts over long distances. I am immune to time zones, and embrace cultural global diversity. I don't bid on (or accept) projects that I am not excited about, and I am acutely sensitive to deadlines. I believe that the success of any long-distance project is in clear communication and balanced expectations. Most of all I believe in the service nature of this business. I am not an oversensitive artistic prima-donna type; I am a plumber with a pen. I provide solutions for your "leaky pipe" visual communication problems.

    They say the devil is in the details.. Well, I'm here to tell ya, if he is I can't tell. Van Etten Studios and specifically 'Dave' is a heaven send! I had strict deadlines at the beginning of my project and Dave rendered a design and delivered in 48 hours!! The lines and detail were fantastic! Our business scope changed and we made Van Etten Studios aware of that fact and they adapted with us without losing the fire needed to create a fabulous design.  In the end, we received what we believe is the best value hands down! Before this feedback I was in no way affiliated with Dave and Van Etten Studios. I'm here to say that now I am because I'll go back to them for all my illustration needs. 5 stars!

    Could not have asked for more from David. He was helpful and on target for everything I requested.

    I had an excellent experience with David. He was very responsive, worked with our changing conceptions, and produced very nice frinished graphics.
