Thinking out loud

Each of us as artists views the world in different ways - we express that view in our own styles. We are visual communicators in a world of interpreters. My job as an artist is not to let on what the piece means to me but to allow a person to find his or her own emotion in the art. Each piece that I create will help give voice to your emotions.

I also do commission pieces if interested please contact Stephen Gage Lentz at: psalentz@gmail.com

About Me

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.”
