About The Artwork

"Oh Snap!" is an expression. We jus named this sculpture, "Oh Snap!" cause it looks like a dude being like, "Oh Snap!" I work with steel, metal,and other mediums, this is a forged steel sculpture. The head with the glass eyes is made from a bar of steel, hot pressed into itself. I use a cutting torch to carve the eye sockets, and the face. The other elements welded to the head are bars of steel that are hot forged into shap and formed using a hammer, anvil, and other blacksmithing techniques. The curvature of the forged bent metal is on a sacred spiral formation patten. Oh Snap!

By traveling parts of the United States and a few other countries, I have gained much through lived experiences. There are many places I'd like to visit, and much more I'd like to learn. I have created metal sculptures throughout the years and in various locations. I take pleasure in many other activities such as crafts, trades, research, painting, tagging, writing, thinking of screenplays, hiking, camping, visiting with friends, playing or watching people play music, making art, and spending time with family. I deeply enjoy being connected with nature, growing things, and watching them grow. . . this is medicine in and of itself - soil isn't dirty, we spend time in the dirt to be clean, I believe. I love making organically shaped, nature-inspired, and funky sculptures using steel, iron, and metallic paints. I dream of using glass to incorporate elements of mystery and liquid in contrast to the solid metal textures. I've developed my own methods and processes of carving metal with a cutting torch, while touching my face and head for anatomical reference and to stimulate my imagination. Using this technique, I have carved faces, heads, and mystical creatures inspired by observing the shapes of my own body. I have made furniture and garden art, swords, knives, shovels, garden hoes, fire pokers, scythes, pickaxes, fantasy weapons, and all sorts of things during what I call an experience of "art addiction."
