JON MICHAEL ROUTE Metalwork
I am a Wisconsin metalworking artist and I have been in love with metal and metalsmithing for over 35 years. I design and execute all of the metalwork from sheets of brass, copper, aluminum and pewter. Construction techniques include raising, forming, folding, filing, soldering, and fusing. Surface patterns are created with handmade dies, stamps or textured hammers using roll printing, embossing, and hydraulic pressing techniques. Colors on my wall pieces are developed with a hot patina process which yields a rich, vibrant color not always associated with metal.
If I can assist you in any way, I invite you to contact me by email at:
