Most people don\u2019t see much use for rusty nuts and bolts, pieces of metal wire, or broken shears. But for artist Brian Mock, this metal scrap is an art waiting to happen.\n\n\n\n
Mock gives discarded metal a new purpose by turning it into amazing metal sculptures. He welds together hundreds and sometimes thousands of metal pieces, both big and small, to craft animals, guitars, portraits, and more.\n\n\n\n
Despite working with such demanding material, Mock is able to recreate features of his subjects to the slightest detail. To make it all even more impressive, the Oregon native is a self-taught artist who never had any conventional training in metalwork.\n\n\n\n
