Outstanding experience! Sean was great! Professional and personable. The studio is simple and clean. It only takes about 30 min total! We got the most simple base with the bronze finish and had it shipped to New York. The total cost was $500. It took about 2 months to arrive. We feel like the quality was worth it! The detail is surprising! We plan to have this forever and it will be fun to compare to our old hands some day. Highly recommend!

My wife and I did the Valentine’s Day special and couldn’t be happier with our sculpture.Sean was great to work with and made the experience a lot of fun. Planning on going back with our 3 adult children and doing the connecting arms. There’s no one else that could do anything close to what Garman does. Make an appointment with Sean and have a memory that will last generations. Thanks SeanSincerely, Rick Smothers

So. My husband surprised me with this for our first anniversary. I’d bugged him – repeatedly – to cast our hands: in wax, in plaster – I didn’t care. I just wanted this romantic little trinket to stick on a shelf and look at.But I was woefully uneducated in this medium. I had not considered that this is Florida – and wax melts. Plaster crumbles.Enter Sean of Garman Sculpture Works.This sculpture is neither wax nor plaster, but some sort of futuristic stone creation that tings like metal if you flick it (but don’t – it hurts.) – and that will last a lifetime. It’s a masterpiece to pass down the generations (and believe you me, my kids will be getting these hands, and they will like it.)Sean is funny and engaging. He spends time explaining the process and showing his clients some of his finished pieces that set in the gallery. He walks you through the molding process with humor and good natured ribbing.The sculpture is not inexpensive – but please keep in mind that you are commissioning a work of art and that the price is reflected in the quality of the piece. The detail is immaculate. I was struck upon holding it, that my husband’s sculpted hand feels like my husband’s actual hand. It is eerily perfect.This is a gift – and experience – I will keep with me for a lifetime.Thank you, Sean!

I drove all the way from Tampa to get a sculpture done as a Christmas present for my mom. Not only was Sean personally so nice and easy to work with, but the quality of work is outstanding. As far as I’m concerned, there’s nowhere that even compares in Florida. Well worth the drive from wherever you’re located ! I’m so happy with how my sculpture came out. The process isn’t long and there’s endless options of sculptures and you can even get a finish put on after it’s complete. Can’t say enough good things about this place !!

I surprised my hubby and take him to have our hands sculpted, this was the best thing I have ever done. From the mommy we step our feet in the shop Sean was amazing until the time of pick up. We love our sculpture, thank you so much we will definitely be back for a family one. Keep on the great work.

My mom did this with my grandparents and uncle, & hands down this is the MOST BEAUTIFUL sculpture I have ever seen! The detail in each hand is gorgeous! My favorite without a doubt is the ring that my grandmother was wearing, truly amazing! I highly recommend this place I guarantee you will be satisfied.

What a great experience and a real pleasure. The sculpture is perfect, so life like the detail of my wife and mother in laws hands are amazing. Such a precious mother and daughter memory that will be handed down for generations.

Sean is the best! For my first wedding anniversary, my parents got my husband and I a gift certificate for Garman Sculpture Works and we went to get our sculpture made Thanksgiving weekend, a few weeks ago. #1: Sean has been doing this type of work and working with the various materials used for years, so he is extremely knowledgeable. #2: Sean makes the process of making your sculpture SUPER EASY. He gives very simple, yet detailed instructions to prep you before, during, and after the sculpture is made. #3: Sean has a killer sense of humor! :) He had us laughing the whole time and made the experience incredibly fun! I would definitely recommend Garman Sculpture Works to anyone who wants to have a great experience and is looking for a unique keepsake.

Sean was an excellent host! Very friendly, engaging and humorous. His demeanor immediately made my wife and I very comfortable and we felt very welcomed. He took his time to explain our options, pricing and the procedure itself. He gave us numerous opportunities to ask questions and was glad to answer the few that we had. Wed highly recommend him and Garman Sculpture Works to anyone looking for a unique experience and a piece of personal art.

I was searching for something interesting to do in my area (on google maps), and Garman Sculpture Works popped up as the first thing, and I clicked it and thought, This would be the perfect gift for my partner whos birthday is in a month. I easily booked the appointment online through Garmans website, which was extremely easy. Got a confirmation back, I think that day, and a follow up reminder the day or so before the appointment. Arrived early to take a look at the studio and speak with the artist Sean, who was incredible. Funny, knowledgeable and completely thorough on how the process works. Point by point he explained everything. Sean was such a great guy that my partner and I felt like we were already with an old friend. And did I mention funny? Hes hysterical.We dont pick up our finished piece for 4 weeks or so but the molding process was such an incredible experience, I already want to do another, without even seeing the finished one. For something completely unique to do as well as your own personal sculpture... this is hands down (pun intended) one of the best things Ive found of the Internet. Thank you Sean. Youre the best!

From start to finish, it was an amazing experience. Prior to the appointment, Sean sent clear and detailed instructions and information regarding what was needed and what to expect. When we arrived at the time of our appointment, he was ready to show us what we needed to do and guided us throughout the whole process. He provided us with all the options for how we wanted to customize our sculpture, from our hand positioning down to the finish. Sean made the experience fun and we had a great time. It takes 4-6 weeks for him to fully complete the sculpture, but the wait was worth it. It came out better than we expected, with exquisite detail. Garman Sculpture Works is highly recommended!

Surprised my Wife for our 6 year anniversary... From start to finish, this was an awesome experience. Sean is definitely fun to be around and kept us comfortable and laughing even with our 7 month old screaming most of the time lol. We chose a pretty awkward pose in which was not easy for any of us haha. Probably made Seans job very difficult during the casting process but he pulled it off flawlessly. Our sculpture is now the centerpiece in our living room. The detail is absolutely incredible. Sean, thanks again!

Review №23

Everybody should have this experience! My family had the Best time. The sculptures are truly Beautiful and the pictures of them are great, but they look even better in person. Speaking about pictures, we take Hundreds of photos a year and they sit in our phone or on jump drives and we pick a few here and there to print out and put on display. They are nice, but this is something different, something Special. Look down at your hand. That’s a one of a kind. Now imagine your parents hands. Can you see them in your mind? Your kids, siblings, loved ones, friends, etc. This is a life size replica. That wrinkle, vein, ring, scar, fingernails everything that makes it truly unique is captured in time and yours for life. A picture is worth a thousand words, but a sculpture evokes a thousand emotions.

We are a family of 4 and have obstacles with our son who is 5 and a quadriplegic. From the moment we came into the studio we felt comfortable and welcome. It was so much fun through the whole process. They spoke directly to the kids to explain the stages and that was a win for us. We cant wait to see our beautiful memory in life. Thank you for a great time!

Highly recommended. Sean and Corly were awesome. We had a 4 year old and they both really connected with us and entertained him so he wouldnt move during the process. The new studio is great, definitely fits in well. We wish them nothing but the best as they continue to grow as a business. Give them a try, you wont be disappointed.

By far the best place Ive ever worked at. It is such a pleasure to work alongside with people who with an artist that is super passionate about his craft, and loves putting a smile all everyones face. I have seen over hundreds of families, couples, and newly weds come in and have been AMAZED with their Sculptures. It has been a pleasure to work here before I start traveling. This is by far the best thing to do in South Florida.

Review №37

I originally found these guys searching for a gift I could give to a chiropractor colleague of mine. I thought it would be a great idea for him to cast a mold of his own hands and display it in his office. The piece came out so beautiful I was jealous, so I decided to get my fiancee a gift and do one of our own. We just went to the studio to create the mold and I was blown away by how awesome this guys are. The entire experience was overwhelming in a great way and we cannot wait to get our final product back. Thanks to the Garman team!!

Garman Sculpture Works did an awesome job on a hand sculpture of my husband and myself it was amazing we couldnt believe how the finishing touch had real live details of our hands. Our experience there was priceless with everyone that played apart of our hand sculpture was wonderful from the meet and greet through the entire process was smiles, laughs, humor like we had known them for years. The money that we spent was well worthwhile and the finishing touch was stunning. Its rare that you receive welcoming smiles from strangers. If you dont believe me check them out yourself you wont be disappointed. Thank you again Garman Sculpture Works!!!!!!!!!!!!!
