Installation Art Sculpture: Sheet Metal, Stainless Steel, & Spacers
RB in the Garden is a tribute to my late father, who was illiterate, rough around the edges, and made of many different layers. Constructed of steel sheet - both regular and stainless - cut with the plasma cutter and assembled together with stainless steel connectors - bolts, nuts, and spacers. I gained more experience working with sheet metal and the plasma cutter. RB in the Garden now resides in Grants Pass, Oregon among my father’s beloved grapes.
Kinetics Sculpture: Sheet Metal, Metal Tubing, & Wire
Davenport is based on the small wooden toys that collapse when the bottom is pushed, but Davenport is made of steel...sheet, rod, springs, and wire. In this project, I worked with the horizontal metal band saw, MIG welder, right-angle grinder, and plasma cutter.
