Metal Sculptures
I began studying sculpture at age 14 with Michael Skop, who was based in Kentucky. My training was traditional figure drawing, clay modeling and plaster molding. When I returned to my hometown in Connecticut, I found work as a welder at Lippincott, a company that pioneered monumental metal sculpture fabrication. I was suddenly immersed into the world of contemporary abstract art and I embraced it.My Windward / Seaward series of sculptures in metal abstractly portray the idea of chance that occurs within the forces of nature and the tendency to obtain a sense of balance and even triumph. The sculpture in the picture is called "Trafalgar". Bronze with a green patina, it stands 6'8" on a stone base.

I loved how you used a light color on doing your abstract metal art, it gives off a calming feeling, just by looking at it. Speaking of metal, I have a lot of spare stainless steel wing seals that I've used for my roof gutter last time, and it gave me an idea on collecting all my used metals including my stainless steel wing seals to build something useful in the future.
