Driveway Gate


Every artist has their favorite pieces, and this is one of mine. It's an Art Nouveau inspired driveway gate. I love to take cold, hard steel and hammer it into flowing, organic shapes. The forgings are reminiscent of the ironwork produced in europe in the 1900's but the overall design is all modern.

Log Holder


Now that they've got a stylish fire screen and a set of custom fire tools, some clients choose to complete the set with accessories like this log holder. This one features forged feet, rivets and a sheet metal bottom to catch any loose bark and keep the hearth clean.

Firescreen



This is a custom firescreen that I did for a client in Memphis. I've been making trees for years, and I've used them in railings, gates, fences and fire screens. The trunk and main branches are forged pipe and the smaller branches are solid. The "ground" under the tree is hollow formed sheet metal.
