Jeff Brock was born in Michigan and raised by artistic parents. His mother, a weaver and basket maker, and father, a designer, builder and racer of custom motorcyles, Jeff mastered skilled trades in metal fabrication and industrial electricity early in his adult life.

At the age of 39, Jeff sold his successful business in Michigan and moved to Santa Fe, New Mexico to dedicate himself full time to the arts.

In Santa Fe, Jeff began enlarging sculptures for other artists, including Star. Jeff and Star worked beautifully on several of Star's monumental sculptures. A year later, they married.

"I am as moved by an abstracted Shamanic spirit drawn on a cave wall with a rock, as I am with any beautiful form of modern, contemporary art. They are the same for me. We are artists who need to speak with our hands through visions."

Jeff's lifelong interest in anthropolgy, archaeology, and geology are naturally evident in his gem and stone work.

For both Star and Jeff, the appreciation for the earliest expressions of mankind, through art, is apparent.

A marriage of a different sort evolved: a marriage of bronze and stone.
