‘Faces’ began as off-cuts from 1 1/4" pipe used to forge garlic scapes.  They emerged as the butt end of the material was pinched, punched and hammered and not according to any predetermined design.  As the bits accumulated, they begged to be assembled and incorporated into other media that exhibited similar or contrasting texture and shapes - motley crowd scenes, with a nod to Pieter Bruegel, the Flemish renaissance artist.
