GRADUATION GIFTS

Two Teachers. Two One-of-a-Kind Thank-Yous.

A handmade thank-you for two teachers

A young man wanted to give two special gifts to his school teachers when he graduated. I made two different metal sculptures for him to give them.

Each character was created from steel nuts and other metal pieces, shaped into its own personality and holding a little book. The pieces were individually TIG welded together by hand, not simply assembled.

Two unique gifts, made for a moment worth remembering.
