You’ve just motivated me to turn the air conditioner on. Love the dragon. He looks ready to strike. Jo @ Let’s Face the Music

This type of sculpting is something I’ve always wanted to get into! One day maybe I will build a giant Xenomorph from scrap metal ! hehe

Thanks so much Dennis! I’ve been focusing on larger scale sculptures using steel rod. But it’s my dream to add a forge to my studio later on. Did you build your own setup? Would love to keep in touch and take any advice you have to offer.

Anytime brother. I did build my first setup, and eventually used money from sales to purchase several different forges. I recommend the whitlox wood fired forge. Super cheap to run it.

That’s a great lead, will definitely look into whitlox. Congrats on all the sales and sustainable success- every artist’s dream!

I tend to wimp out at 80 and above but only if the humidity is bad…which it often is here in the Mid Atlantic. Even with the AC I still seem to get overheated in all the welding gear. If I could weld in shorts I would. Love your work and thanks for stopping by my blog today.

Thank you so much Olli. The elements can get touch, but we gotta push through for art’s sake!

Just now finding your work on Facebook. The sculpture they used was the one of the woman. It was jaw dropping beautiful. I followed the link to your site to find out more about you and I was amazed at how young you are. I am a 72 year old great grandmother, and I thought you would be well up in your late 40s to create such beauty. Then I saw the dragon, Wow! I hope and pray you continue in your gift. The world is full of really ugly stuff called art. Please continue because with a gift like this, the world will beat a path to your door.
