Bob O'Dell was our featured artist during our April 2011 show.
For most of my life I did auto body work. Classic, Antique and Hot Rod cars were my specialty. After 40 years of this type of work my body decided to rebel and I had to give it up. Now I use my skills and creativity to produce original pieces of art from recycled materials. I source these materials from a variety of places such as my scrap pile, Asner Iron, and Craig’s list among others. (I can’t give away all of my secrets!)
Most of my pieces are meant to be displayed outside in the yard or garden. They bring a bit of whimsy to the landscape and hopefully a smile to the faces that happen upon them. Some items are also functional, such as the Piggy Planters and garden hose holders. I also do custom fabrication to order. Examples of past work: iron gates, custom tables, guitar bicycles and more.
