Hello, I'm Shane Boyd.

I create beautiful metal sculptures of the human form made entirely of reclaimed steel. Don't see anything that takes your fancy? Do you have a vision of your own? Let's start a conversation and make your vision a reality. I love doing commissions. The process I use for my sculptures varies depending on what I'm making and who I'm making them for. Most of my pieces start with a plaster cast taken from a model​,​ mannequin​,​ or customer. Some are made entirely freehand and some are a combination of both plaster cast and freehand. Once the piece is removed from the cast they are not even close to being finished. They still require adjustments​,​ additions (for example wings)​,​ grinding​,​ wire brushing​,​ colour adjustments and rustproofing. While doing commission pieces I find the best results happen when I collaborate closely with the customer during the build process. This is very often the most enjoyable part of the build and ensures the customer's vision becomes a reality. This process often results in my customers becoming my friends.
