About The Artist

I have discovered the joy of copper!  It is a wonderful medium with which to create wind sculptures, fountains, centerpieces, wall hangings and "yard art".  Copper is a lustrous, malleable material.  Over time, I have learned that it's texture can be altered in many ways: natural weathering; chemically; by shaping it with any number of tools; pounding it; marking it; welding it and changing its color by using varying degrees of heat.

I am a backhoe operator by day and artist by night!  I was born and raised in California and  now live in Sanford, North Carolina with my wife and two children.    My wife says I would rather fish than breathe and it is often while fishing that my inspiration comes to create.   My pieces often include creatures like crayfish, dragonflies, hummingbirds and fish of all kinds. 

I come from a long line of artists, including uncles: Gene Adams Logan and Roland "Kickapoo" Logan.

I do commissioned work...so if there's something you would like which you don't see in my catalog, just call me or e-mail me!

Thank you...Ken Coldren
