About Justin

I have been a life long artist and craftsman. Having forged my path through a university degree in art and design, my work has come full circle. I grew up in my fathers machine shop working with precision machine tools and watching them turn raw metal into useful parts for various industrial applications. This experience helped me understand that attention to detail was important in any endeavor. Before taking on fine metal work I was a commercial and fine art photographer for 15 years. Being able to apply the skills and lessons of my art career to the craft of fine art engraving allows me to see beyond the materials and process and be able to create meaningful heirloom quality pieces. Throughout my art career I have strove to challenge myself with every project. Every new commission presents an opportunity for me and my client to push my work forward. Fine hand engraving is beginning to allow me to fulfill the true vision I had when I set forth as an artist. I look forward to working with the finest materials and creating one of a kind pieces that will live forever. Please contact me with any questions. I would be honored to have my work in your collection.
