Artist Statement
CJ Peltz is a figurative sculptor and fine artist from the
Pacific Northwest. His figurative works blend the traditional graceful figure with contemporary
and abstract design. For CJ, every work of art has
to have some striking and unique feature about it.
He starts with the figure and then weaves the design with that figure to create something
more.
The
integration of representational figures with unconventional abstract settings, makes his work
unique and not easily categorized in typical figurative and abstract
classifications.
He feels that art is a projection of life filtered through the artist’s
mind. CJ bends that projection of life using his
imagination and heart.
