5/24/19: These are the unbelievably beautiful metal figures by metal artist Anton Kovka, also known as Anton Yakushev. Googling this guy turned up very little information, but I did find exceptional examples of his work, both very big and very small.
I did discover that Anton hails from Russia, has been working in metal for only 16 years, and has reportedly been featured in a number of Russian and Ukranian blacksmithing publications (none which seem to be online). The artist regularly teaches workshops around the world, and will be teaching a master class at the Metal Museum in Memphis, TN, from June 21 through June 23, 2019.
You can follow the young metal artist on Facebook and Instagram. There are also a number of videos of his works in progress on his YouTube channel.

No favorites. These are all exquisite in their detail. Although I would not mind that stairwell railing at my house…

Yes, I liked all of them. I am starting to get ready to move and I am going to be downsizing but I bet I could find a place for one of them. The first pick is the drummer. Hal

The drummer is fantastic! Good luck with the move prep. I love the culling of stuff that happens before a move. Hope it’s as cathartic for you as it has been for me.
