Comment by Nathan Nicholls aka-recyclesculptor on 12 September 2008 at 6:27pm: On the bronze note, anyone who can mold clay or wax could do good bronze work. If you don't like an aspect, you can change it at will. If you ask me it should be less respectable as a medium. This is only in respect to the craft and not the concepts. The harder something is to work, the more respected the outcome should be. That's my thought anyhow

Comment by Nathan Nicholls aka-recyclesculptor on 12 September 2008 at 6:22pm: I am recyclesculptor. My business name is recycleart. I seek new ideas, raw masterial and recognition. My work is generally made of found object steal which is often antique and not routinely available. It is for this reason that potential buyers lack appreciation of it's true value and I wind up keeping most of what I make. I have an extensive sculpture garden which is continually growing. Love to share thoughts.

Peace

Come visit.

Comment by Mark Jon Erickson on 11 June 2008 at 2:20am: This is great. A site I can relate too. I was a dumpster diver as a kid and continue to find materials along the back alleys and side streets around Oakland, Berkeley and San Francisco.
What folk will throw out is wild. I'll have to post some of my found object pieces.
Appreciate you all letting me in through the side door.

Comment by Michael Bowdidge on 8 June 2008 at 12:47am: Joe, the sad truth about Bronze is that it lasts (and has an 'aura' of respectabilty') Unfortunately art as investment demands durable materials rather then conservation headaches.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not condoning this for a second, I work predominantly with 'found' materials too, but the 'thirst for bronze' is just another one of those by-products of capitalism...
