Day Seventy Four

Today, my joints hurt, I have 3 new cuts on my left hand and 2 new cuts on my right, my index finger is charred and I am very very happy. What am I doing? Forging steel of course!
Its been very nice to return to my mother medium and work with the heavy, hot and large. Am busily making sculptures steel sculptures that will eventually accommodate cast glass elements for my April 17th show at Water Street Glassworks in Benton Harbor, MI. (http://www.waterstreetglassworks.org/). Too much fun!
Jim Masterson and I have plans to make a die for forming spheres this afternoon and we'll finish up the day eating some yummy roast duck from Andy Dohner's farm. Another fabulous day full of new experiences here at The Metal Museum!
