Born in Germany and raised in Australia, Mick Doellinger has called the U.S. home since 2003.

For over 40 years Mick has focused his time & energies on sculpting; beginning with more scientific sculpting of the mannikins used in the taxidermy industry, to now solely immersing himself in the creation of fine art sculpture, Mick’s subjects span the globe and highlight his varied interests. 

“My earlier work was much more literal, but over time I’ve preferred to not ‘overwork’ the clay.   With this looser style, collectors of my work will continue to notice something they hadn’t seen before, even if it’s just a partial fingerprint or smudge.  These slight ‘imperfections’ are a reminder of the hands-on sculpting process, kept frozen in the finished bronze.”

“For me, it’s less about creating a perfect replica of an animal, and more about sculpting a narrative or moment in time.”

“Although I’ve been sculpting most of my life, I continue to be inspired by new possibilities

and feel my best years are still ahead.” 

Mick is an Elected Member of both the National Sculpture Society & the Society of Animal Artists.   His work can be seen in museums, galleries and private collections around the world, as well as appearing in magazines such as Western Art & Architecture, Sporting Classics, Art of the West, Fine Art Connoisseur, Western Art Collector and South West Art Magazine.
