Todd Andrews enlarging small models to monumental size in T.A.S.C.O., a company we started in 1980. We worked inevery sculpting medium and with artists from all over the world including Arnoldo Pomodoro, Richard McDonald, and Malcolm Alexander.
In 1988, Paul Lindhard invited me to rent a studio at Art City in Ventura, California where I could concentrate on my own carving in addition to the occasional commission for monumental works and bronze castings. In 1995, I was a featured artist in an award-winning documentary on Art city by Donna Granata. Since joining Art city, I have shown work on a continuing basis in the Art city gallery, the salon, and the showroom. I also participate in international shows and my work is held in collections in Europe and the Americas.
