Biography

Timothy Holter Bruckner is very famous among other sculptors. He started his sculpting career when he was 18 years old: he worked for a jeweler in Beverly Hills, where he made African animals of was, which were fabricated into gold and silver ornaments. He was advised by a friend to work as a free lance artist and so he did. He focused on sculpting until the early eighties and then started a career as a musician, but this ended very soon.

Bruckner worked for several well-known companies like The Danbury Mint, The Franklin Mint, Hasbro, Mattel and Enesco. In 1999, Bruckner started working for DC Direct, a company which specializes in high-end collectibles, and he became a well-known sculptor.

Bruckner likes to work with several kinds of wax and he does most things by himself: from casting and engineering to painting. He debuted for the Walt Disney Classics Collection with the Auctioneer & Redhead from the Pirates of the Caribbean series.
