Sculptor
Patrick Romandy-Simmons
Patrick Romandy-Simmons is an award winning sculptor based in Southern California. In addition to sculpting for Disney Theme Parks and Collectibles he is developing his own original graphic novels as well as sculpted figures, models and kits.
Each Walt Disney Classics Collection sculpture bears a backstamp with Walt Disney's signature and production year mark. The marks symbolize major milestones in Disney history. A production mark represents the calender year during which the particular piece is made. Individual sculptures of an open edition piece may carry different marks when production continues over the years.
