Farmhouse Forge is the blacksmith shop of artist and metalworker James Gonzalez.
The shop is located in the heart of the New York State North Country, on the family homestead.
I specialize in one-off and short run custom designed projects.
I received my education in aesthetics and craftsmanship from the Massachussets College of art and design where I majored in sculpture. I have over fifteen years of experience as a self employed artist blacksmith.
From 2001 until 2013 I operated a studio in Boston, MA. Executing commissions ranging from pure art to architectural scale metal work.
In the spring of 2013 I moved my expanding family to a more rural setting, namely an old farm and homestead, transforming the old barn into my artistic metal shop.
