Our Artist

Our new artist, Chris Glaze of Canton , Texas is fantastically talented! He has cut with a hand torch since the age of 12, and now in his late 40's, he can do things with a flat piece of metal that will make tears come to your eyes! His metal art goes far beyond the simple western metal art silhouette and adds action and detail only possible by a Master Craftsman. 

The realism that he invokes into each of his metal art and wildlife scenes is breathtaking. His work was once out of reach for the common man, due to the fact that he hand-drew everything before taking his cutting torch to burn “life” into the steel. His hand made pieces sell for many hundreds of dollars due to the painstaking detail and time involved; but now they are done in much less time on our plasma cutting machines.

Chris and his wife Clara make sure that no detail is lost and the “aura” is still there, but at a much lower cost . Now anyone can afford a Chris Glaze work!

Chris still does custom metal art work on his own, for those wanting a hand-cut original.  His website is www.manofmetal.com for those who want to contact him or Clara for further information. If you ever get a chance to go to the trade days in Canton , Texas , look him up:  he is definitely worth the trip…
