Jason Burik is a Pittsburgh based artist who creates
amazing replica models out of plastic building blocks. When he was in
college he took his long-time hobby into a full-fledged business. Since
starting his own company he has been commissioned to do work for
professional sports teams, large corporations, universities, hospitals,
public schools and museums. He also has created personalized gifts for
people over the entire world.
At the age of 7 he started creating models with Lego blocks but one day
decided to try a more challenging endeavor. He constructed a
built-to-scale model of his parent’s home using the blue prints. The
finished project was not only self-rewarding but also appreciated by
family and friends. His first commissioned project came from the
Pittsburgh Pirates Major League Baseball team creating a miniature of
their ballpark.
The next progression was to teach these skills to others, thus began the
concept of building camps. Jason says the camps give students the
opportunity to construct, learn and grow in rewarding ways.
Special acknowledgement to John Zawinski for his business advice and web design input.
