 Satisfaction rides the curving lines of flat raw sheet steel as it is pulled from the fire and worked into, over, and around forming surfaces in this First Session of Hot Sheet Forming with Vivian Beer. . . . → Read More: Curves and Sinkers along a Hot Sheet  When Vivian Beer set out to form sheet steel into bold expressive forms, she couldn’t find a workshop to teach her the things she wanted to know, so she taught herself. Her resulting body of art furniture work is collectible and evolving. Vivian has built a workshop series around what she has learned about expressive sheet forming, with applications ranging from large scale sculpture to custom auto body work.
