Details

Camera bag over his shoulder, baseball cap turned backward, a photographer focuses on his composition. Armando Ramirez crafts the image from an amazing assortment of recycled metal and automobile parts. Sheet metal scraps, a spark plug, nails and wire all find a place in this unique sculpture.

The artisan does not give his sculptures a fine polished finish, therefore smudges and scratches may be present.

"Picture this in your home"

The Rustic Photographer auto metal sculpture is one of several pieces by Armando Ramirez that I have purchased from Novica. He is one of my favorite artisans, and Ive given his creations as gifts to family members to celebrate their careers or special interests. His sculptures are unique and whimsical, and Im so impressed by the details he is able to incorporate in them. Im already looking at his collection to get ideas for Christmas.

"Love this artist!!"

We now have at least 4-5 pieces from Armando Ramirez. His talent is phenomenal! This was purchased for our youngest son to hang his car keys and Covid mask on,in his room. This was one of those gifts that is soooo hard to let go of and actually give away. I would love one of just about everything of Armando Ramirez ,we have his amazing deer sculpture that has a place for a votive candle and it is hands down my most favorite piece of art!! Highly recommend getting something from this amazing artist ! His small people sculptures have made charming gifts through the years but his larger work is absolutely exquisite!!!

"Clever auto part sculpture"

I bought one of these pediatricians for my nephew who is a pediatrician. He loves it and told me it is very cute. I also bought one for my personal doctor. She loves hers, too. Armando Ramirez is very creative--a true artisan.. I have bought several of his sculptures and have loved every one of them and so have the peopleI have given them to.. I turned the Barber sculpture into a Retinologist giving an eye injection. When I look at them, they do not seem like they are made out of scrap auto parts. All I see is a delightful showpiece.

"She love it"

Luckily, I found this beauty surfing the web looking for a gift for my wife for our 6-year anniversary. THIS SCULPTURE IS PERFECT since I work in a metal recycling company and our first outings were to parks.
