I’m Norvell King, a sculptor and clay illustration artist; and the owner of King Studios.\u00a0 Like most artist, I grew up loving to draw and I was fascinated with comic books and fantasy art.\u00a0 Art is different for everyone.\u00a0 It is unique, as each person is unique. I spent countless hours drawing and to this day, I am still heavily influenced by artist such as John Buscema, Gene Colan, Neal Adams, and Frank Frazetta.\u00a0 It’s my intention to create art that I love with the hope you may enjoy it also.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Joining the U.S. Navy at the age of 17, I was fortunate to travel the world and visit many countries on four continents. My exposure to different cultures and the many people I met was priceless and it helped to form my view of the world. While on liberty in Spain I discovered some of the most beautifully sculpted porcelain figurines created by the Lladro Company.\u00a0 I was so impressed with the exquisite styling and the delicateness conveyed in the figures’ poses, I wanted to emulate their style.\u00a0 In my leisure, I found myself experimenting with sculpting, using bars of soap to create miniature African style masks and my own figurines.\u00a0 It’s unfortunate I no longer have those early sculptures, but I had to shower to stay clean.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
