Second Creation began in 1986 in the basement of my home and grew into one of the primer Taxidermy Studios in
the Midwest. I have won numerous awards on the state and national level. In 2005 , I received my first placing
in the World competition receiving 2nd and 3rds in freeze-dried work, exotics and domestic scenes. My effort to
strive for perfection has paid off; in 1997 I was awarded the distinction of Certified Master Taxidermist.
My focus now has shifted to teaching the art of quality taxidermy to my students. I have recently moved
into a 2,400 square foot facility. My facility is stocked with the latest equipment. I keep the class sizes
to a minimum to provide a learning environment that is second to none. This new building provides ample room for
my students as well as allowing me to continue to produce top of the line commercial work and award winning competition mounts.
