Had Mick Doellinger on today. Wow. He has got an interesting life. At 18 months old his family experiences an extremely traumatic event when the ship that his parents are taking to emigrate from Germany to Australia sinks in the Indian Ocean. So that's where it starts, folks.
It's clear to me when I listen to this man talk that he was always meant to be a sculptor. He had to find his calling by wading through the different trials and components of a life where staying afloat is the main priority. He was a taxidermist. He worked the rodeo. He was a butcher. All of these jobs and experiences contributed to forming an oddly specific skill set and ultimately he found his calling as a wildlife sculptor.
Mick is one of the foremost wildlife sculptors out there. He's in many of the top museums and galleries in the country. So he's a very interesting indivudual. I had a great time with Mick Doellinger on Art Dealer Diaries Podcast episode 232.
You can see Mick's work in the Masters of the American West show at the Autry Museum of the American West.
