Taking the time to create accuracy, heavy detailed 3D forms, shape, composition requires dedication passion and commitment to his craft and this is exactly what the artist puts into every single creation.
Carl is influenced by Charles Sargant Jagger, Rodin, Alfred Gilbert as well as, evidently from his creations, his love of music.
