About the Artist
Butch Charlan
Butch Charlan, an architect and former student at Crealdé, has embraced the figurative form as an artist. He carves from natural and man made stones. He also creates his work by building an armature and applying synthetic stone directly to the surface. His work varies in style between realism and abstraction, with the focus on the dynamics of the human form.
