It's no secret that I love oil cans, or "oilers", to be more exact!

In today's age of modern technology, we sometimes forget that machines had to be oiled regularly to function properly. The "oilers" used to perform that task came in every size and shape imaginable.
For me, there is something beautiful about the design of these utilitarian objects. I see them as sculptural elements. My goal is to bring out their form and the "patina of time" in a way that speaks to the spirit of the people who used them.
