Karl Jensen
Karl Jensen was born into an artistic family and has sculpting in his genes. His father, Reed Jensen, is a sculptor of note and his great aunt, Elaine Brockbank Evans, taught sculpting at the university level and has work displayed across the country. Thus he grew up surrounded by art and creativity; later he studied under Angelo Caravaglia in college.
Sensitive portrayals of faces continue to be his trademark. Children are his favorite subject matter because of their beauty and innocence: “Childhood is a carefree time of joy and play, making it a perfect source of artistic ideas with universal appeal,” Jensen explains. He has the unique ability to “capture a moment in time” to bring something of the freedom of childhood to us.
Jensen’s work embodies the articulation of the human spirit. His work ranges from small indoor bronzes to life-size outdoor pieces and fountains.
