JL Merrill Metalworks

"Through my work I explore time, as my pieces reflect our current perception of time and how our perceptions have changed. I am committed to work with metal, to offer adornment and functionality, and to connect and share my passions with others. While steel is one of the world’s toughest materials, I find it empowering and humbling to bring it to a malleable form and shape it into function and beauty. I am passionate about exploring ancient techniques and preserving the art of blacksmithing."
