Richard Morgan
SCULPTURE

During my 35 year career I have worked in the 
welding
field working with metals. I occasionally welded 
gifts for family members and friends, but 
basically viewed welding as a job but nothing 
more.

My perception changed on 3/10/08 when my 
wife and I were notified that our only son was 
murdered in California on Venice Beach. With 
the stress from this, along with the stress from 
work….. sleep was nearly impossible.  So after 
a while I ended up in the shop during those 
restless nights.  It was then that “Welding” 
began to ease some of the grief and my 
creativity was awakened and I began to 
transform into an artist and metal sculptor.

As I began to create metal art I found
that I wanted to create unique pieces of 
functional
and non-functional art.

Each one of my pieces is individually designed, 
cut,
shaped, welded by hand and is a challenge I 
truly
enjoy. Every piece is truly an original, and no 
two
pieces are alike.

I started making western style rustic pieces and 
have also
been making sculptures and jewelry.
