Metalworks by Mike and Art Design

Hi, I’m Mike!

My father (Art) was from Boston, and a welder his whole life. He started a welding company and took me on, around 2005 where we made pool fences, corral fences, security doors, and fixing metal related things ; whatever got us paid. A lot of it wasn’t fun and exciting, and few things challenged us creatively so this time around I wanted to change that!

My father taught me how to weld, and we spent some much-needed lost time together, which in turn taught me a valuable trade and many life lessons. As terrible as I am at some art (drawing and painting for example), I seemed to find metal a good medium to work with and had fun conceiving, designing, and making things.

Unfortunately in August 2013 my father passed on from this world, so I have created a new company to continue to spend time with him and create pieces of “Art” for you to enjoy! I have since purchased a CNC plasma table to further enhance the work I can take on and allow me to design more custom one off custom pieces! You can see some of that work in my Etsy shop where I sell custom metal signs, flowers and other decor that ships nationwide. I also work locally in Phoenix, AZ to create custom gates, furniture and signs for homes and businesses.
