What started me building my steampunk airships?

16 Feb

People ask me all the time what in the world set me off on this path, building steampunk airship sculptures of all things. When I tell people I’m an artist, they usually ask if I’m a painter.   Nope… not in the classic sense anyway…

In the video below, I describe how I got started with airships and what other art I like to do.

What craft do you love and what got you started? I’d love to hear about it!

Stephan J. Smith is the artist and sculptor at Artsmith Craftworks in Swartz Creek, MI.

A passion for reusing and up-cycling found items into beautiful and amazing art is what drives Stephan to make art that both teaches and inspires. Stephan also does commissioned work and is available to do talks and classes on re-purposing/up-cycling and may be reached at ArtSmithCraft@yahoo.com or at 810-516-7381.
