Join us this week on Christian Devotions SPEAK UP! when artist Doug Henderson of the Creation Museum joins to share his gifts for creating.

Doug Henderson was a teacher of special effects makeup and animatronics at the Art Institute of Pittsburgh from 1990-2006. He met his wife, Cathy, through NBC while working in film, television commercials, theater, and print advertising. They married and formed Henderson Design and Productions where they sculpted dozens of historic and celebrity "wax" replicas for museums and themed attractions all over the world. His favorite is still Colonel Sanders for KFC.

Doug and his wife began working as contractors for Answers in Genesis, starting with the Creation Adventure Team videos staring Buddy Davis, which they wrote and produced. They came on board the museum's art team full-time in 2006. After the museum opened in 2007, Doug and Cathy stayed on to continue designing exhibits and maintain current ones.

As one of the lead artists for the Ark Encounter, which is under construction at the Creation Museum, Doug’s current job is to oversee the production and assembly of forty pairs of animals. Discover more about the new exhibit at www.arkencounter.com.
