"KING OF DIAMONDS" Bronze, Edition of 57 33" tall An extreme skier
My life before sculpture revolved around product design, especially sporting equipment. While living in Sun Valley, Idaho, I designed products for several ski product companies such as Scott-USA and Reflex. I became associated with several top-notch skiers, one in particular who attempted to teach me to ski. He went on to become famous as a stunt skier with over two dozen movies to his credit.
In depicting him in action I have used his style and equipment which happens to include some of the products I designed. Lane Parrish was known throughout the ski industry as one of the premier all-around skiers.
