RECYCLED METAL SCULPTURES- 423-341-6718(erik@recycledmetalsculptures.com)

 

I WILL BE  AT THE "BLOOMS DAYS FESTIVAL" AT THE UT GARDENS(ON THE UNIVERSITY OF TENNESSEE'S AGRICULTURE CAMPUS) IN JUNE ON THE 28TH AND THE 29TH*** YES, ONE OF MY PIECES "ANVIL FIRE" WAS SELECTED FOR BRISTOL'S 2007 SCULPTURE WALK BUT THEY DID'NT HAVE THE $ TO PAY ME MY STIPEND. APPARENTLY THE SCULPTURES WERE PICKED IN NUMERICAL ORDER AND MY PIECE WAS PICKED 8TH. I NOW KNOW THAT SOME SCULPTURE COMPITETIONS WORK IN THIS MANNER AND WILL NOT PARTICIPATE  IN ANY THAT DO THIS. "ANVIL FIRE"(ALL BLACK) PICTURED ON THIS PAGE, TOP AND TO THE RIGHT WAS THE ONE THAT WAS PICKED... GOOD ENOUGH FOR BRISTOL TN./VA. OR ANY OTHER CITY FOR THAT MATTER...  THIS AREA IS SO FRIENDLY TOWARDS LOCAL ARTISTS. I GUESS IF YOU DON'T HAVE AN "ARTS DEGREE" YOUR NOT FOR REAL...... WRONG..... THE WORK SPEAKS FOR ITSELF. PLAIN AND SIMPLE.......E.J.B.   CUSTOM IRON SCULPTURES....

GARDEN FAIR EARLIER THIS YEAR.I WILL MAKE MORE OF THESE AS PARTS BECOME AVAILABLE.MAYBE I CAN TRAIN ONE TO RIDE BY HIMSELF. REALLY COOL FOLKART THAT WAS BUILT TO LAST.-CHECK OUT THE BRASS DOORKNOB GAS TANK CAP AND THE HORNS FROM A 1947-'48 FORD  TRUCK.

--THE TWINS-- THIS IS A NEW SCULPTURE. APPROX.  6' TALL. BOTH BIRDS ARE ALMOST THE SAME. THEIR BODIES ARE OLDER A.T.V. RIMS. ALL 1 PIECE WITH A -I- BEAM BASE FOR LONG SCULPTURE LIFE. THE BASE HAS HOLES IN IT FOR STAKING OR BOLTING DOWN FOR EXTRA STABILITY. EACH BIRD HAS THEIR OWN SAWBLADE FLOWER. THERE IS A LITTLE GARDENER ON THE RIGHT THAT IS WAVING AND HOLDING A GARDEN HOE....

2 PICK-HEAD DODO BIRDS AND A NICE SAWBLADE SUNFLOWER SCULPTURE. ALL 3 OF THESE SCULPTURES ARE NEW. THESE BIRDS ARE APPROX. 3 ' TALL AND ARE ALL ONE PIECE. SAME FLYWHEEL BASE AND ARE VERY STABLE JUST ABOUT ANYWHERE THEY COULD BE PUT. THOSE PICKS THAT ARE USED FOR THEIR HEADS IS PROBALY 1 OF THE HARDEST THINGS TO FIND FOR ME. I REALLY WOULD'NT MIND TO HAVE A TRUCK LOAD OF THEM....

3 NEW BIRD SCULPTURES. 2 OF THEM ARE STANDING ON OLD STEEL WAGON WHEELS. ALL 3 WERE BUILT ON FLYWHEELS SO THEY COULD BE STAKED OR BOLTED FOR STABILITY. THE BIRD ON THE RIGHT SEEMS TO BE A HUNCHBACK OF SOME SORT.ALL 3 OF THESE BIRDS ARE READY FOR SPRING!!!

THIS 'BIRD' SCULPTURE IS APPROX. 6 1/2' TALL.NO LONGER AVAILABLE... HE STANDS ON TOP OF AN OLD IRON POT THAT I FOUND. VERY STABLE AND NOT TO HEAVY. ALSO THROWS A GREAT SHADOW, AS SEEN IN THIS PICTURE.
