“Mixing fine art with function and making it an elegant blend was my biggest challenge when I built this horse art ranch sign for the collectors,” said Tolley Marney as he looked over the finished pieces before he sent them to the powder-coater.
Tolley built the horse head metal sculpture first. Then after the client approved that piece, he altered the plans a bit to visually adjust for the reality of the sculpture as it would look with the lettering. He built the metal lettering and numbers by melding separate bars of metal into shapes, then refining those shapes with his hammer.
The client chose to limit the rust patina by powder-coating the final piece before having their on-site metal worker install the sign on their ranch driveway.
Depending upon the size and complexity, a metal sign like this starts around $6,000 up. Tolley makes beautiful ranch decor. Contact Tolley with your plans and questions for your unique blacksmith metal art signage.
