Sculptor Mark Schwabe of Warren is the most recent artist to join Moosewalk Studios and Gallery. Known for both his figurative and abstract works in metal, Mark says sculpture has always been his art form, “I think in 3-D and cannot visualize form on a flat surface as in a painting. I start with a rudimentary plan to establish proportion and then work directly in the metal.” Mark began his career in 1969 by working with his father who was a jewelry designer working in metal. He received his MFA from the State University of New York where he studied under Richard Stankiewicz and has exhibited in New York City and the Albany, NY area. He also shows annually at the Big Red Barn Art Show in Waitsfield during the Vermont Festival of the Arts.
