Researching the people and events Mr. Larsen paints and sculpts, he spends much of his studio time in books and on the internet - historical accuracy being as important as his palette. He creates paintings and sculpture commissioned by Governments, Corporations and Individuals located throughout the United States.
Mr. Larsen likes to think of his sculpture as three-dimensional painting. He leaves the marks left by his fingers in the clay as he does the brushstrokes on the canvas, believing that most effectively shows the emotion of a painting or sculpture.
