By communicating through both figurative and abstract sculpture, Renate strives to engage her audience in an emotionally intimate expression of life. Although a graduate of The Ohio State University School of Journalism, Renate believes the visual and tactile impact of sculpture on the psyche supersedes the written word.

Renate has over 30 years of experience in all phases of the bronze casting process. She has studied at The Columbus College of Art and Design; Johnson’s Atelier, Columbia University, and with patina expert, Ron Young owner of Sculpt Nouveau.
