Mark A. Dennis, a native of York County, has a BA in Technical Theatre from Mansfield State College. Sculpture has been an integral part of his life for over thirty years after taking an intro to sculpting class in college. During this class he fell in love with metal casting and, following graduation, began his career as an artist working in bronze while managing a small bronze foundry in the Lancaster area.

Over the years, Mark fine-tuned his skill in wildlife art and human portraiture in polymer clay and became one of the top Art Doll sculptors in the world. He has acquired many awards and published a book in this medium. Recently, Mark opted to return to his larger and more relaxed style by utilizing architectural epoxy in which he can direct-sculpt his portraits and animals.
