I highly recommend Patrick Coppinger for any project,

The industry is filled with those that play the game, who talk but don't produce!

Having known Patrick for over 12 years I have found a sense of excellence in his presentation and work!

A quality in his work unmatched, and a no games attitude!

At a recent project for a Jeep Dealership while building a Faux Rock Display customers raved about his technique, in creating unbelievable realism!

Thanks Pat for a Job well done!

This is to introduce Patrick Coppinger. I have personally known Patrick for about 12 years and worked with him on a variety of projects at local theme parks in and around the Orlando area.

He is a competent scenic artist, sculptor, designer and craftsman who is able to operate in a wide array of visual applications. He is not only a skilled artisan, but is also gifted conceptually and is able to run crews of artists unto tasks with firm deadlines.I would have no reservations in having him aboard on any project that I was personally responsible for the outcome of.

Thank you.
