Hubcap Sculptures
November 15, 2008
“An artist collected thousands of lost hub caps from roadsides across Britain and turned them into spectacular animal sculptures - worth up to £3,000. Ptolemy Elrington, 43, works full-time in his studio crafting shiny dolphins, dogs and dragons from all grades of hub cap - from BMW and Mercedes to Ford and Volvo. He fixes the caps together using wire salvaged from scrap yards and cuts them with a craft knife and hacksaw.” w/ photos
