Living Portraits
What would you like the world to know about who you are or who your loved one was?
​
"Regardless of measure, everyone has a legacy. The portraits I create for families capture the living essence and tell the emotional story of a person’s life. I believe Art possesses the ability to help us heal. This is why I create."
Earle Rock

Incorporate the urn in the base, utilize technologies such as magnetic levitation, prerecorded messages, internal lighting, or gold/ metal leafing to contemporarize your portrait to tell the story YOU want to tell. If you can conceive it, we will make it happen!

Testimonials:
​
"My husband of 55 years travels a lot. On the wall opposite my bed, there is a 'Remembrance Relief' of my husband that Earle sculpted. When I look at that, it is so life-like that I feel my husband is watching over me. It comforts and allows me to sleep."

"Earle did a 'Living Portrait' of my father-in-law. It looks so much like him that my granddaughter said to me one day; 'I remember Grandpa with the Cane, but I was so young that sometimes I forget what he looked like. I really love seeing this (Living Portrait). Every time I do, I'm sitting on his lap and he is reading to me."
Anne R, client
“You are such an amazing Artist! You have a great heart. You captured all of my daughter’s beautiful imperfections perfectly! I want to thank you once again for everything you have done… BEAUTIFUL…”

"Earle’s 3-D pieces are superbly done. He presents the subject in a manner that brings out the individual’s inner essence. They are far more than just a likeness that one sees in a photograph. These sculptures make the individual come alive, with highlights that ineffably portray the character and spirit of the subject in a way that cannot be captured on film. These pieces breathe life into the individual and bring them into the room with you, almost ready to converse."
Chip M, client
"Earle’s strength as an artist lies in his extraordinary sensitivity to not only capture the subject’s physical likeness but also their character. He has the uncanny ability to sculpt the internal essence and strength of a person; he breathes life and expression into all of his art.”
