You can see it off I-70 near Richfield UT at the Fremont exhibit--- (which is quite a spectacular preserve of petroglyphs and a neat museum.) — with Jacob Dean, Metal Sculptor at Freemont Indian State Park, Utah.

Hi there. I have been sculpting in Metal for more than half of my 40 years.
I love Metal as an art medium. It is relatively unexplored and there are only a few people dabbling in the more challenging genres. It is a validating and awful thing to try and form hard metal into natural/classical shapes and congruent themes. I do a lot of grinding and pounding, followed by a lot of laborious intricacies. Energy for it ebbs and flows, but the whole of it is quite satisfying.
You may be confident that my work on your project will always be an attempt to maximize the medium. I’ll perform in a manner that would qualify my work as being among the very best available anywhere.
