Steve Linn is a visual storyteller.  He finds subjects who are sometimes famous, sometimes anonymous.  He then creates a sculpture that is not only a portrait, but also a history of his subject, starting with exhaustive research into the person’s life and accomplishments.  He is a master of materials -- an expert in casting glass and bronze, sandblasting plate glass, carving wood and drawing.  These skills are an extension of his active mind and are used to convey ideas and to create or recreate stories.
