As
children, identical twins Mark and David Stepper became
fascinated with the Earth's unique inhabitants. They
could often be found exploring the ponds and back woods
surrounding their Connecticut home for turtles, frogs,
and fish. Mark and David were trained in sculpture by
their mother, an accomplished artist, and were transforming
scraps of clay into wonderful creatures by age three.
When
Mark and David combine their individual artistic styles,
the outcome is extraordinary. Their work embraces both
abstract and realistic elements, resulting in a line of
imaginative yet familiar creatures. Delightful personality
and fantastic motion bring each piece to life. All sculptures
are hand-cast in high quality solid lead-free pewter and
meticulously hand-finished. Mark and David's work can
be found in galleries, museums and fine retail establishments
in the United States and abroad.
