Kathleen Martell

Discover the striking work of Kathleen Martell, a multi-media sculptor who transforms welded metals and found objects into powerful, one-of-a-kind pieces. From her Warrior Figures—crafted to honor your personal journey—to intricate sunbursts, flowers, and holiday décor, every piece carries meaning and depth. Explore her art, commission a custom sculpture, or learn the craft yourself through hands-on welding instruction.

 Warriors 

Inspired by the feminine warrior spirit of the land, wind, and fire. I create unique and distinct warriors, each embodies the fire spirit of their patron, person, or place, gleaned through their stories, their vibe, their colors, their talismans…. but primarily through my interaction with them. 

​

Fire-Forged Celebrations 

Created by following the suggestions of the metals and the flow of the fire. Ranging from totems that represent male energy,  sunbursts to flowers, altars to trees, and abstract forms in between. This encompasses a variety of holiday and celebration sculptures and gifts.

​

Instruction 

Oxygen Acetylene (OAW) Welding classes ranging from introduction to making simple and advanced sculpture are available through the Clear Creek Makerspace. Whether you're a beginner looking to get started or a seasoned artist wanting to sharpen your skills, my classes will guide you every step of the way.

"I love my warrior! Everyday I pass my warrior as I’m getting ready to head out into the world. She reminds me of my hopes and dreams while still grounding me in my home and family. I think every woman needs one of Kathleen’s warriors. Each one is unique and speaks to its human partner in its own special way."
