As a “late bloomer,” I waited until my mid-40s before immersing myself in my passion for sculpting stone. I had honored my father’s wishes not to pursue art since he believed it to be a financially unviable profession. However, the desire to sculpt, fueled by the artistic DNA inherited from both of my parents, was too great a force to resist and I ultimately embraced my destiny in the mid-1990s.
After 20+ years in the consulting field, I recognized the need for a career change. The first time I touched chisel to stone I knew sculpting is what I was born to do. Over the past twenty years, my sculptures have focused on wildlife subjects including North American and African mammals, migratory birds and endangered species. Some of my favorite sculptures are polar bears, owls and hawks, sea turtles, elephants, and gorillas. They reside in numerous museums including The Woodson Art Museum, Brookgreen Gardens, and the Ward Museum; corporations and private collections throughout the world.
In 2015, I met my wife, Loti and we combined our love of wildlife and nature to form Weiler Woods for Wildlife with the goal of raising awareness and funds for wildlife conservation using my art. Moving forward, we are educating ourselves and others on making a positive impact on conservation issues. We are presently partnering with land preservation groups, museums, research institutions and zoos with national as well as international field conservation programs.
