Laran R. Ghiglieri has been creating and designing
master works of art since he was 11 years old. Initially working with clay, Laran began sculpting breathtaking figurines of
wildlife and human images, and produced “Claymation” movies (film animation shorts or mini movies).
As a third generation Ghiglieri artist, Laran has had the opportunity of studying and
apprenticing under his father (world famous Lorenzo E. Ghiglieri), realistic wildlife artist and master sculptor. As a student
of Lorenzo, Laran collaborated, created and co-produced hundreds of paintings and sculptures ranging in theme from historical,
biblical, wildlife and western. He has contributed to many of the most spectacular monuments in the United States, including
the World’s largest: a bronze eagle standing over 33 feet tall and weighing 14 tons. He has partnered in the creation
of works owned by Michael Jackson, Governor Arnold Schwarzeneger, Vice President Al Gore, King Olav V of Norway and President
George H. Bush.He recently had the honor and privilege of presenting an original, Ghiglieri sculpture
to his holiness, Pope John Paul II, The Vatican.
In 1989, at nineteen, Laran's works had
already surpassed the $60,000 mark in terms of individual selling price.His current projects will soon
exceed a half million-dollars a piece in achieved revenue, establishing Laran Ghiglieri as a world-class master sculptor following
in the family tradition of quality and excellence through the visual arts.
