For David, life has been a road of challenges; therefore, his travels from painting to sculpture have been short and filled with joy and enlightenment. As a
self-taught artist he enlists a variety of media and styles to capture the spirit of his subjects. Not being satisfied with just creating sculpture, he has mastered the art of mold making and
casting as well. From conception to a finished work of art, each piece is caressed and nurtured to reveal its essence, bring each one to life. "The essence, or spirit, of the subject is
elusive, and that is what I look for. When choosing a subject, I go beyond the obvious, finding a different perspective on one of nature's age-old themes."
David founded Light and
Time Design Studio in 1991 as an alternative to paying the high foundry cost associated with casting his sculpture. Based on the knowledge that there were other sculptors in the same dilemma, he has
established his business with fair prices, quality work, and a reasonable working time table.
When not working on commissioned pieces, he teaches other artists the art of mold making and casting,
this interaction helps him maintain his creative force. David's art is in private and corporate collections throughout the United States.

Bre grew up in the south valley of Albuquerque, New Mexico not far from the Isleta Indian Pueblo. The impact of the mixed culture of the area exposed her to art of the
southwest in every form. Even the landscapes and sky came to life for her. As an adult, she moved to the Colorado Rockies and spent the next 20 years enjoying the exposure of more of the American west.
Residing in the sculpture capital of the west, Loveland Colorado, it was there at the Sculpture Invitational Art Show that she first exhibited her unique art form of faces in Leather, and met her now
partner sculptor David Harris.As early as childhood, Bre can remember mixing media in her artwork. Always seeking to show the human side of everything, those tangible as well as those that only exists in
our dreams and imagination. A goal that still comes through her artwork today.Life has brought Bre down many roads. From building sets, backdrops, props and designing costumes with the Albuquerque Civic
Light Opera and High school theater troop, to weaving the story book tales for children through storytelling and coaching youth soccer. To the more compassionate work of being a healthcare provider, and
moving her into practicing alternative healing. The best is being a mom to her 2 sons and 4 stepsons. Personal tragedy started Bre on the path of self-healing through art, progressing to a permanent
career change. In the New Millennium, Bre joined David at Light and Time Design Studio in Royal, Arkansas, as part owner and resident sculptor, bringing with her, her own unique medium of sculpting in
leather and skill in life casting. Over the past 5 years, Bre has expanded her talents to include bronze, aluminum, stainless steel, wood and glass. To her credits since the merger, Bre has been
re-sculpting Hall of Fame Baseball players, as well as the Trophies for the Independence Bowl for Hartland Collectables. Bre hopes to expand again using new untried glass techniques. "The fluid
smooth flow of glass intrigues me, I'm looking forward to experimenting with glass". Whatever the medium used you can always be sure that the human characteristics will always be in Bre's
pieces.
