Metal Head

It's funny how things influence our thinking without us even being fully aware. I would never have guessed that in the midst of a summer, enjoying the sun, making functional pots and working in the garden that these sheet metal inspired forms would be part of the work I would produce. I suspect these unusual (for me) pieces were inspired by metal roofing work that was happening outside my studio.
