Gene Reineking - Owner - STUDIO #2

After graduating from the University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point with a BA in Anthropology and Sociology Gene pursued studies in art with a major emphasis in ceramics. 

Studying with Richard Schneider at UWSP prepared the artist for a twenty year stint as a studio potter. The next twenty years was spent primarily making sculpture in wood, stone, and bronze.

While exhibiting his work at street fairs and in galleries, the highlight of his career has been the inclusion of his work several times in Birds in Art, the international avian-themed show at the Woodson Museum of Art. After a short retirement in 2020, the artist has picked up the palette knife and is currently exploring two dimensional art with oil paints.

After a long career sculpting the wild, beautiful creatures in our world in wood, stone, and bronze the artist has picked up the palette knife. Applying oil paint to canvas, Gene is offering landscapes for contemplative enjoyment, for exploration of connections, and for a sanctuary for the spirit.
