A Message from the Artist

Greetings and Welcome!

I appreciate you visiting my main website. I'm very proud of my years of working in copper which started and continues in the Great "Copper State" of Arizona. I will always feel fortunate to be a sculptor and have the privilege of sharing my work with others.

I am originally from Guam, but spent years around the Ocean and grew up in Tucson, Az. Though I've been an artist most of my life: drawing, painting, sculpting, creative writing (I have many other creative interests in general) I couldn't make up my mind on what career field I would do, but I fell back on art in 2004, and became a professional 16 years ago. Though I had considered working in a few artistic disciplines and mediums, I settled on specializing in copper art. However, I still love all the other mediums, so regardless of the art I currently concentrate on, I take great pride in the fact that all of my work is produced with the end in mind, in order to give everyone many years of enjoyment through each and every project I work on. This love of art has thankfully led to my firm belief that all creative endeavors throughout time were initiated by inspiration and collaboration.

After finding copper it has become my primary medium of choice. It is an amazing material and element, as it does not rust, is both malleable and durable, highly conducive to color, heat and electricity, with antimicrobial properties, versitile, abundant, replicable, and last but not least the first metal humankind ever learned to harness and wield... And that is before even mentioning that it is very fun to work with!

I focus on copper fountains, wall art, sculpture, custom work of all sorts, and a variety of interior and exterior decor...
and more...

Each piece I make with my own hands, and pour my artistic passion and integrity into all of my work. And as such, from my small designs to my large scale creations, each is an expression of my gratitude and appreciation for people and art itself.

My goal as an artist, is to offer and create high quality art which enhances your space, and brings enjoyment and relaxation to you and others.

Sometimes a picture is worth a thousand words, and throughout the site you will find much more information about Ward Studios and what we can do for you.

Thank You for taking the time to review my work. Please let me know if I can be of any assistance to you.
