Kurt Pfaff was born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania into a creative family who always encouraged his artistic pursuit. Drawing, painting and sculpture seem to be instinctive, but it took a journey to central Texas and employment with a foundry as finisher of bronze lost wax sculptures to finally persuade him to pursue a formal education. Kurt graduated from the Art Institute of Pittsburgh with a degree in Visual Communications, providing a foundation in which to obtain work as a sculptor in his hometown, Pittsburgh. During his time with the Western Pennsylvania foundry, Kurt created numerous large and small bronze and aluminum bas relief pieces including portraits of seven of the Baseball Hall of Fame inductees.

Kurt’s career path changed as he spent the next twenty years growing a successful advertising and design studio. This experience was invaluable by honing not only creative skills but a vital business acumen. Embracing technology and computers early with the purchase of a Macintosh in 1987 was indispensable to opening new doors to creative possibilities.

With an accumulated education of business, computers, software, sculpture, illustration, design, marketing and advertising, Kurt is now itching to see what new and exciting things are in store. Presently as freelance talent, Kurt draws upon his diverse knowledge and collaborates with various publications, agencies and corporations furnishing first-rate design and top-notch imagery. All with the dependable, attentive customer service only someone with Kurt's unique background can provide.
