The Gatlinburg SkyLift, which initially opened in the 1950s, is one of the oldest continuously operated attractions in the Smoky Mountains. The popular attraction is located directly across the street from Ripley’s Believe It or Not in downtown Gatlinburg. This vintage chairlift transports visitors to the top of Crocket Mountain for an amazing panoramic view of the National Park and quaint town of Gatlinburg below. It is the number one scenic overlook in Gatlinburg.

Mark Russo, CEO of Treasure Investments Corporation (TIC), was contacted by one of the principles of Boyne, USA, owner of the SkyLift Resorts, and inquired about TIC’s ability to create the monument. “I received an email inquiry and quickly returned the call explaining that I have been involved with the creation of literally hundreds of monument projects, from 60’ bronze eagles to larger than life whales, animals, religious and historical themes and made installations for parks, zoos, casinos, hotels and incredible sites and locations around the world. After sending a few photos showing the world-class quality of our work, the quick time it takes us to complete a project, and our collaborative process we landed the contract.  They sent over a great concept in a drawing, we made it much better and to their liking and now we are creating exactly what the customer wants,” says Russo.

We are creating exactly what the customer wants.

TIC starts with input from a client about subject, design, size, and medium. Once TIC thoroughly understands what the customer is looking for, a series of renderings are created and modified until it is precisely what is desired. Once agreed upon, a small scale version is created and cast in usually bronze, but other mediums can be requested including resin or precious metals. With the small image complete and accepted, TIC will then go to production on the heroic piece.

The larger than life-size bronze bears will be complete in about eight weeks and will be installed in the new SkyLift patio area in a recently renovated part of the resort.

This project marks the 7th heroic bronze sculpture to be delivered by TIC in just this year alone.

Why not bring the most amazing motorcycles in the world to show with our finest bronze and silver sculptures?

Mark Russo, CEO, Treasure Investments Corp

Treasure Investments Corporation (TIC) partners with Marine Turbine Technologies (MTT) and Ted McIntyre to display both an incredible fine art collection and the world’s fastest production jet-powered motorcycles. “I met Ted, a true engineering genius, almost 20 years ago when I purchased my first jet-powered motorcycle, right after Jay Leno bought his. I visited the Barrett-Jackson event in Scottsdale last year and witnessed exhibits that were amazing and an audience that spent several-hundred-million dollars on cars in just a few days. At that moment, I knew we had to get a booth at this amazing event, but not just with fine art; we needed to bring something automotive-based. So I thought – why not bring the most amazing motorcycles in the world to show with our finest bronze and silver sculptures? I wanted to bring the two together and not only did we do it, but dozens of people said we had the best booth at the show. Our booth overflowed with attendees; we couldn’t speak to everyone. Our team was positively overwhelmed,” says Mark Russo, CEO of TIC.

Barrett-Jackson was an incredible success for TIC. The company learned a lot from the show and identified new market opportunities. TIC is preparing to be a major exhibitor at the big Barrett-Jackson event in Scottsdale, Arizona, early next year.
