This piece is about 16" tall- started with a hollow steel ball and added various size round bar- and lot's of welding and grinding. I had a real hard time posting this- was the pic huge when you opened it?

This sculpture is made from a hollow steel ball, various diameters of round bar, an old axe head, a little forging and a lot of welding and grinding. The base is a piece of original decking from the Constellation which is docked in Baltimore's Inner Harbor. -

Hi Brutal, thanks for the comments,after art school I worked in a bronze sculpture foundry in Baltimore for about 6 1/2 years. I've been in business for myself for about 13 years. Are there any pics of your work?
