After switching to bronze and pewter as his preferred medium, his awards and juried exhibitions went on to include the Miller Wildlife Biannual, the Wisconsin Designer Craft Council, Purchase Award at Marian University, and the Milwaukee Zoological art award for 10 years of service.
In 2007, his prized bronze sculpture The Fisherman, was selected to become a part of the Milwaukee School of Engineering Grohmann Museum.
