ROD ZULLO

About this artist

Rod Zullo (b. 1965) is a nationally recognized sculptor known for his expressive works
rooted in nature, sport, and the American West. Raised in Pennsylvania, Rod developed a
deep appreciation for the outdoors early in life. Encouraged by his artist grandmother, he
pursued formal training in Studio Arts at Montana State University and further honed his
skills through apprenticeships with master sculptors Floyd Tennison Dewitt and Kent
Ullberg.

Inspired by the legendary travels of Ernest Hemingway and Zane Grey, Rod spent time
guiding fishermen in some of the world’s most renowned destinations—from Montana and
the Eastern Seaboard to the Bahamas, Mexico, and the West Indies. These immersive
experiences in nature continue to influence his artistic vision.

Rod is a Fellow of the National Sculpture Society (New York) and has received numerous
awards from the organization. He is a sought-after instructor, teaching regularly at the
Scottsdale Artists’ School and the Campbell Center for the Study of American Sculpture at
Brookgreen Gardens. He also played a pivotal role in establishing the Equine Sculpture
Program at The Culver Academy in Indiana.

Zullo’s work is held in major permanent collections, including:

The National Museum of Wildlife Art, Jackson, WY
The Leanin’ Tree Museum, Boulder, CO
Brookgreen Gardens Museum of American Sculpture, SC
