Creating metal sculptures ranging from several inches to several feet (often way out of scale), all with just a bit of whimsy, is one of the
pursuits at Small Ponderings. Neither flora nor fauna are safe from interpretation! What could be next?
Springing from an excavation business of the same name, and nestled somewhere between
the Green Mountains of Vermont and
the Adirondack Mountains of New York,
I spend some of my time heating, cutting, bending, pounding, welding,
brazing, grinding, sorting, painting, pondering......
Take a look at some of my past work
The Sun Flower On The Side Table is a steel and iron free standing pedestal table with a glass top
The
Married Table is the latest
creation. Two flowers "married" into one supporting a custom cut
56 inch diameter tempered glass top. It was presented as a wedding gift.
The
Dear John Sunflower stands nearly
9 feet tall and bears appropriate agricultural equipment colors.
Yes, that's a bulldozer sprocket on the top!
The
Mother In Law Flower stands about 6
feet tall and, like
the Dear John Sunflower, retains it's blossom and color all year.
No, it's not a real humming bird.

The
Chain Snake is an older creation
that moves very slowly and eats very little, a nice quiet pet.
The
Tangles Sculpture is just the size
of a 12 fl oz bottle of your favorite beverage
and all stainless steel.
