Phoenix Blaze
Artist,
Entertainer, Fabricator, Personality. Unforgettable live performance artist.
An accomplished performer with a firm
grounding in fabrication and robotics, Phoenix has entertained, amazed
and delighted audiences all over the world.
From record breaking sword
swallowing and fire eating shows to champion combat robots, Phoenix has
established himself as a world class personality and fabricator. His
prop work can be seen in both Movies and Television and Phoenix himself
has appeared on several popular reality and gear-head TV shows along
with a couple small movie and TV pilot roles.

Artist
As a free media artist Phoenix is
centered in metal and builds mostly from
"found" items. His original art includes such items as desktop
dragon
sculptures made from tools to giant scale reconstructions of ancient
ruins and machinery. While pumping out the occasional movie prop or
corporate logo helps pay the bills, large on-site installations are his
true passion. From 45' UFO's to entire site design his work in the
outdoor amusement industry is highly respected. Custom sideshow banners and
heraldic devices can all be purchased on the Art page along with
original sculptures and geegaws.

Fabricator
From Entertainment & combat robotics,
Special FX for stage and screen, set & sight design and construction to
fully functional period armour, Phoenix has quickly made a name for himself
as a world class fabricator. Constant use live FX that last for years and
dynamic venue designs with an eye to crowd movement and site maximazation.
Using period tools and methods he builds heavy amour for sword fighting and
light armour for shows and props. Custom engraving, brass work and period
finishes make his armour highly sought after due to both its beauty and
wearability.

Shows
Phoenix has returned to touring
full time and has revamped his Renaissance themed sword swallowing
show. He is still available for corporate team building fire seminars
and individual fire manipulation lessons. Phoenix is currently also
showing and selling his original art at shows and events all over the
country.
