bio:

Esmoreit Koetsier is a Dutch born design engineer with a passion for art. As a child Esmoreit remembers the presence of artwork in public places. These experiences along with his current professional career were the motivating factors in his interest in art. His sculptures reflect experiences in his life or in society. He combines years of experience in metal fabrication and product development to achieve the creation of sculptures that range from abstract to industrial. Esmoreit prefers to work in steel, aluminum and stainless steel.
While in school, Esmoreit spent a semester in Florence Italy. This experience along with travels throughout Europe deepened his desire to create art. Upon his return, he became more and more focused on sculpture. His work ranges in size from small to large scale. Currently four of his works are displayed in various public locations and private collections.
Esmoreit is continuing his education in art and design. He works from his home studio in Lake Elsinore California. Some of his other interests include sailing, photography, climbing and traveling.
