handcrafted Steel Art.
Custom Portraits. Original Creations.

It starts with steel.

Every piece begins with steel, transformed by hand into something entirely its own.

Working with the natural textures, colors, and imperfections of the metal, artist Doug Slater creates one-of-a-kind original artwork and custom portraits that bring together craftsmanship, creativity, and personal meaning.

No two pieces are ever alike.
