Andy Chapman – Artist Blacksmith Bio
FIRE – METAL – VISION
Those three ingredients combine at the hands of Andrew Chapman to create works of metal artistry. Traditional blacksmithing techniques, using hammer and anvil, along with modern artistic vision work together in each of Chapman’s handmade works. Steel and copper, newly made or found object, all bend and flow under his hammer. He moves and molds the metal to his vision, making it into all things imaginable. Leaves and branches from nature, well-crafted scrolls or classic motifs, and modern twists and turns that defy gravity all take shape on Chapman’s anvil. These pieces range from larger scale architectural elements and furniture to small, flowing table top sculpture and handheld objects. Each project shows the process and techniques learned during his 15+ years of experience. Chapman’s introduction to the field of metal began while earning his BFA in sculpture at the University of Cincinnati. Since then, he has zigzagged the country, learning and perfecting his craft at each stop. His skills have developed through experience in custom metal shops from Ohio to Texas to Tennessee and now to his home workshop in North Carolina. Homes across the country feature his works. Chapman has also added teacher to his list of skills, sharing his techniques and craftsmanship during group or individual classes and as a featured smith during regional blacksmithing conferences. Andrew Chapman’s metal work continues centuries old tradition in metal in the most modern of ways.​​​​

ABOUT
What is Red Anvil Studios? – The home blacksmithing shop of Andrew Chapman is a workshop of ideas and techniques backed by a playground of tools, equipment, and knowledge that make any ideas in metal into a reality. Located in the foothills of North Carolina, this design driven studio focuses on custom metal works and commissions. The highest quality standards and attention to detail are the first components of any project that leaves the shop. Centuries old techniques are commonly used in tandem with modern machines or materials. Each work is handmade, touched by the artist. Projects range from furniture and items for the home such as fire screens, decorative and functional hardware, architectural elements to sculpture for both indoor and outdoor use, tabletop decorative items and functional art. Really the only limit to what can be done is that of the material. If it can be imagined in hand forged steel, Red Anvil Studios can create it.
Why Red Anvil Studios? Have you ever looked for the right element for your new house or a distinctive handmade gift? Or do you have this thing that you’d love to see made into something more, something grand and unique but you don’t know how to go about doing just that? Red Anvil Studios is the collaborative partner you’ve been looking for. Andy Chapman’s years of experience not only apply to his blacksmithing techniques, but also to his ability to work with clients to bring their vision to life. The collaborative process is a key element in each commission. Red Anvil Studios will work with you to develop a custom work specific to you needs and desires. And we’ve seen it before, once you get that very first piece of custom metal made just for you, it’s only the beginning to seeing metal art as part of your life.
