Doug Makemson creates his creatures from scrap steel, and
other mixed metals. He writes, “The challenge is to
create sculptures that seem alive through implied motion.
A cocked head, open mouth, asymmetrical stance—all
work to forge the personality of the finished animal or
figure. The character of the raw material is maintained
in the finished piece, as one gets closer the parts become
recognizable as more or less familiar objects from our industrial
culture.” Doug lives in Nicholson, GA.
