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.
