About the Artist
i am a self taught metal smith with a custom goldsmith background. i have been a self employed artist working with many different types of metals for over 25 years. i enjoy working on custom projects the most as it keeps me challenged and keeps the creative juices flowing. i create a lot of wall sculptures as well as free standing sculptures. i also design pieces for the garden and landscaping projects.DAVE HARDELL website View Website DAVE HARDELL website View Gallery DAVE HARDELL website Purchase Art
