À propos
The Steel Spirit hosts galleries of artwork created entirely by Military, First Responder & Hospital Practitioners. The galleries are a platform of recognition and thanks for the work that they do.
When most people hear 'art' they tend to only think of painting or drawing. We've had a much larger base of mediums involved with The Steel Spirit i.e. sculpture, photography, pottery, stained glass, leatherwork, woodburning, woodturning, metalwork, airbrushing etc. We even had a poetry submission in 2018 by a WWII vet. Fred submitted the poem he wrote over his 6 years fighting in Europe. He is 99 years old and still writes poetry today.
These stories are what create layers of depth to the artwork and makes The Steel Spirit galleries unique...these galleries are about people and the art is that window for the community.
