Yard Sculptures of Ted Koterwas

Amazing art pieces created from junk metal. Mr Koterwas happened to be outside in his yard during my visit, and was very welcoming and gracious to share some stories. His final, and largest, and most difficult piece was the dragon - an 8 to 10 foot behemoth that took upwards of four years to complete. The chrome chest is made from bumpers, while the body scales were from other metal each manually cut one by one. All true works of art.
