My Story

Welcome! I'm Martie, a California-based metal artist, and I've been creating custom sculptures since 2012. What started as a passion project in my garage has grown into a full-time labor of love that brings me joy every single day.

Every piece I create is truly one-of-a-kind. I hand-cut each sculpture from recycled steel using a plasma cutter, then carefully shape, weld, and finish it with custom staining and patina techniques. No molds, no mass production — just my hands, my tools, and my vision.

My inspiration comes from the natural beauty all around me — the sunflowers swaying in my garden, the ocean creatures along the California coast, the wildlife that visits my yard. I believe art should bring joy and connection, and I pour that belief into every sculpture I create.

When you purchase one of my pieces, you're not just buying a sculpture — you're getting a handmade work of art that carries a piece of my heart. I take great pride in my craftsmanship and in making sure every customer is thrilled with their purchase.

Thank you for visiting my shop and supporting handmade art. Whether you're looking for a garden centerpiece, a wall sculpture, or a custom creation, I'd love to help you find the perfect piece!

The Process

How Each Sculpture is Made

Sourcing Materials

I use recycled steel, reclaimed metal, and repurposed tools to give new life to discarded materials.

Cutting & Shaping

Each piece is hand-cut with a plasma cutter and carefully shaped by hand — no molds or templates.

Welding & Assembly

Individual pieces are welded together with precision, building up layers of detail and dimension.

Finishing & Staining

Custom staining, patina, and paint bring each sculpture to life with rich color and character.
