Spring Day
The mild steel sheet which is the back for Spring Day is almost 17 inches by 11 inches and is for sale if interested please contact Stephen G Lentz at psalentz@gmail.com
I have always had an interest in art, focusing mostly on illustration and computer graphics for many years. After moving to Auburn I started taking welding at Placer School for Adults and then became an instructional aide, where I discovered I had a passion for working with metal.
With the exception of a few joints most of my pieces are held together by tension, using copper or silver wire that I have flattened. I form each piece into a unique work of art using my imagination as I work the metal and wire together. I have begun incorporating glass into some of my pieces, feeling that when glass is added, it brings out the emotions that are hidden in the metal. I love “the fact I can help the metal find a life of its own, whether it’s steel, copper, brass or found metal.”
