Work of Art

When my cousin Robb was 17 his love for art and metal inspired him to 'set up shop' in the corner of a shed on my Uncle Oscar's farm. Now twenty-some years later he works at/owns Thak Ironworks, a business that requires extremely hard work, yet provides an outlet for his talent/passion! His work has been sold world-wide...be it high-end armor, railings, gates, range-hoods and other numerous works of art. Below are a few shots of some of his work. Visit his site for more info and pictures.

Time is a sequence of moments 

From life's kind Giver they pour

and what we do with them will be 

what we are remembered for...

Workmanship is something

That shapes our legacy

We would do well to remember this

In whatever that work may be

So forge from the fire of moments

Love's best with hand and heart

For then the end result will be

A beautiful work of art
