DENNIS CHAMBERLAIN ART

Native Southern Californian and grew up in what was an "idyllic little community" called Bonita. Received my B.A. degree in sculpture in... mid 90's, both from San Diego State University. It is there I discovered my passion for working with metal while studying with Helen Shirk and Arline Fisch... and teach art. While there, I was fortunate to teach at Metropolitan State College of Denver where I was head of the foundations program and, for a couple of years, the sculpture program. I left teaching and Denver and headed for Maui, Hawaii where I live "upcountry" in another "idyllic little community" called Kula. My focus now is on making art, not teaching art, so I get to spend a lot more time in my studio creating but it is never enough.
