Autobiography of an old horseshoes


Autobiography of an old horseshoes man.

Horse and Man

I thought some art would be nice on a Sunday!

A reader sent me a few images of an artist from the UK named Tom Hill.

He uses horse shoes for sculture!

I think creating art out of horseshoes apprears easier than it really is&#; Have you ever tried to make anything other than bridle hooks and candle holders out of horseshoes?   They don&#;t bend easily.

Sure, we have zillions used ones around&#; but they&#;re dirty and hard as, well, steel.

So, I was intrigued to find out more about him.

TOM HILL

He must be a man of few words or maybe he has no publicist.  I don&#;t know&#; but gathering information about him was like trying to find a needle in a haystack.

The only way I knew he was from the UK was because we don&#;t have castles here.  (I did find that a Lord from a castle had commissioned a piece from Hill.)

Another clue to his whereabouts came via a comment about most of his work being sold in the UK.
