Turning Trash into ART in a Green & Eco Friendly Way

This piece is a hand-made original, OOAK, no two pieces are ever alike.   Why rats? I'm not entirely sure.. I just grabbed the sculpting clay and Mr. Rat it was. These pieces have been really fun for me and it started with me staring at a huge pile of vintage rusted out beer cans in one of the treasure piles in my studio and thinking... what could I do with these?

 If you have any questions please email me or phone me direct at 219-306-9474.
