Meet Your Maker.
Commission a custom handmade sculpture or illustration by Christopher Genovese today.
Made-To-Order Myths
Ancient sculptors of metal and stone immortalized the figures of myth and history. Loved, hated, or obscure in their time, all become gods in the form of sculpture.
I offer custom statues or portraits of nearly anyone under the sun, in nearly every sculptural style but specializing in a classical-era aesthetic depicting pop-culture icons, public figures, and events that shape our lives.
Interested in a Rodin-inspired bronze bust of your favorite 1980s action movie star? Or maybe a Baroque-era stone statue depicting a mythical UFC match? If podcasts, movies or music are your religion, which pop-culture god would you place on your shrine?
My goal is to continue the handcrafted tradition of representing cultural myths and figures of worship with the same drama of the height of ancient art, leaving clues for future archeologists to look back at our time in history and wonder, “Who were they?”
Make history, and start building your personalized pantheon today.
Portrait Bust
Crafted with your precise preference of scale, size, and style, a tasteful portrait bust carefully displayed in your home can set the tone for a chosen space, and inspire every emotion from awe to hysterical laughter, depending on the subject depicted.
Illustration
Some spaces require a more subtle touch when incorporating a tasteful piece of portrait art. An exceptional illustration in graphite beautifully framed and mounted has low-profile flexibility that, depending on size and placement, can blend into the background or steal the spotlight.
Statue
From the great mythic heroes of our time to a treasured loved one, figurative statues serve as beautiful and meaningful objects of meditation and remembrance whose presence elevates the luxury of your home or work space, and reminds you of what matters most, whether it’s laughter, love, or struggle.
Bas-Relief
While the limitation of a portrait bust or statue can focus and deepen the meaning of a piece, scenes depicted in bas-relief boast a surprising burst of mood and drama, with a lower footprint. It could be a screenshot from your favorite film, or a tasteful portrait of your sweetheart as a Roman Emperor, a bas-relief tells a short story worth remembering.
