Artist

He who works with his hands is a laborer. He who works with his hands and his head is a craftsman. He who works with his hands and his head and his heart is an artist.Saint Francis

This is a quote from one of my heroes.


A little about Frog Valley Forge

A quick look around this site is quite inspiring, such beautiful and technically pleasing works.

This being my first post here I thought I'd just ramble a little about myself. I come from a long line of metal workers dating back to the 1700's. I carry on that tradition with a new twist, adding an artistic element to the functional metal.


Collaboration with Kris Hardy Canvas Artist

| | |

I am currently in the process of collaborating with Kris Hardy, a contemporary canvas artwork artist. I will be taking the main asthetics of his artwork and creating metal work pieces which will complement his work and we will eventually be exhibiting the canvas art and metal art together at an exhibition in Hull early 2009.


Problems...

There seems to be a problem for me to comment the comments so I'll post a new entry... Just wanted to say to Kimberli and Nic that it's like Kimberli said, I was just promoting my summer show, but I don't mind Nic showing his "piece" here. Could be good to know the terms in English... Sorry about replying so late - I realize it's been three months now! ;)
