Horse Fighter - Prototype

Steve Seeley was born in a small town in central Wisconsin in 1979. There he was raised on a steady diet of hash browns, action figures, heavy metal and adventure. He received his BFA in printmaking from the University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point before moving to Columbus where he received his MFA from the Ohio State University. After graduating he moved away from the outer limbs of the midwest right into its heart, Chicago. There he currently resides, nourishing himself on the same diet as his childhood, with the exception of "adventure", which has been replaced by whiskey. His artwork has shown in galleries across the U.S. He is represented by the Packer Schopf Gallery in Chicago.Rotofugi Designer Toy Store & Gallery, established in July 2004, is located on the border of Chicago's Lincoln Park and Lakeview neighborhoods in a beautiful vintage building. Since opening, Rotofugi has grown to become one of the world's premier sellers of designer toys from artists all over the world. Rotofugi features a diverse selection of vinyl figures, capsule toys, plush and more from both eastern and western designers. The adjoining Rotofugi Gallery features monthly art exhibits by a range of both local and nationally known artists. Beginning in late 2007 Rotofugi partnered with Chicago based product development specialist Squibbles Ink to begin producing artist-designed figures by the talented designers located in their home town.
