Press Release Body = Succasunna, NJ -- August 28, 2004 --Today’s Artisans are hard
at work creating new forms of artwork made out of the strangest materials. While
Artisans of old had a very difficult time scavenging for materials from which to
create their masterpieces, in today’s world, refuse recycling takes on a whole new
meaning. Fueled with an abundance of left over materials, the use of recycling by
artisans is becoming more widespread. The ingenuity of the human spirit lives on.

Made from recycled materials such as hex nuts, washers, copper and steel materials,
the artisans from H&K Steel Sculptures® have captured, in metal form, the human
spirit from virtually every walk of life. In their series of steel sculptures
depicting the human condition, art truly imitates life.

Using what otherwise would have been discarded materials (ending up in our taxed
landfills), these artisans are sculpting steel and copper into figures that depict
people in their natural habitats, at work or play. Doctors, Lawyers, and Indian
Chiefs, to name but a few, all depicted doing what they are known to do best. They
are whimsical characters that will entertain you and your friends at home or in the
office. Each come with a Certificate of Authenticity representing that you are
getting a quality piece of artwork from H&K Steel Sculptures®.

The Steel Sculptures are available in two different forms; the Wine Caddies and the
Steel Figure Sculptures. The Wine Caddies are whimsical steel sculptures that are
designed to hold your favorite spirits (a normal size wine bottle) and are available
in four styles or categories; the Professionals, Everyday Living, Sports, and For
the Holidays. Each figure is designed in the wardrobe befitting the character. My
favorite from the Professionals gallery is the Pilot, probably due the fact that my
son is a pilot. The neck of the bottle supports the sculptured head of the figure
while the bottle sits within the body of the sculpture. They will become treasured
gifts to be enjoyed in any home decor. Prices range from $64 - $96 dollars.

Perhaps the most intriguing of the sculptures are the Steel Figure Sculptures. While
they are designed along the concepts of stick figures, these whimsical characters
will entertain you for years to come. It seems hard to imagine how anyone would ever
tire of having them around. Beyond the quality of the artwork, what will impress you
the most is the sheer number of these characters. Each is unique in its own way,
making it so very difficult to settle on just one.

With so many to choose from, most likely you will find at least one character you
can associate with. In truth, it is more like three or four that you will connect
with. Available in six categories from H&K, there are the Professionals, Everyday
Living, Sports, Musicians, Wings & Wheels and Bathroom Delights. Also, you need to
see the Bathroom Delights gallery. They’re a must!

My favorite from this series is the Artist. What can I say? It’s probably the artist
in me that yearns to come out. It’s in us all don’t you know. With hex nuts for
hands, feet, eyes and how shall I put this, hips, these characters are trademarked
by their signature eyeglasses. The craftsmanship is old world quality. Prices range
from $60.00 up to $152.00.

Each of the Steel Figure Sculptures comes with a copper nameplate affixed to the
sculpture, confirming it as an H&K original. They make Timeless Gifts, suitable for
all occasions, and will be admired in any home décor or office setting for many
years to come. They will always be in style.
