Jerry is a St. Louis, Missouri native who recently relocated to Elyria with his wife to be closer to his daughter and grandchildren. He started sculpting in high school and was influenced by his Art Teacher Fraser Leonard.

While Jerry did a few pieces since graduating, the last couple years after retiring has inspired him to take the time and opportunity to hone his skills, and sharpen his creative gift. He has created several unique pieces in various types of wood and stone.

His new home in Elyria provides the perfect workshop space to create and refine new pieces. He thoroughly enjoys the satisfaction he gets when others praise his work. It gives him great joy to realize that others take pride in displaying his sculptures in their home and office.
