I am Jeremy Werkheiser, the Welding Artist and creator behind Metal Relic and IronOdinArt. Born in Northeastern Pennsylvania in 1980, I developed a love for building, repurposing, and creating things from a young age while growing up in the countryside.

Despite my full-time job as an Industrial Maintenance Manager, I pursued my passion for art and created Metal Relic from my home studio during nights and weekends. Although I lack formal artistic training, I am grateful for the support and guidance of my incredible mentors who have helped me develop my skills and become the best version of myself through patience and compassion. Through Metal Relic, I aim to inspire my children and others to pursue their dreams and believe that anything is possible.

Working with various steel elements, including sheet metal and fasteners, I carefully manipulate and weld them to match my vision. I take pleasure in creating organic forms while maintaining the industrial and mechanical aspects of the steel. My art reflects my belief that anything and anyone can serve multiple purposes in their lifetime and that your current state should never limit your potential.

Each of my sculptures is unique, and I enjoy seeing them evolve with each new creation. Knowing that my art will be passed down for generations as cherished gifts is a tremendous honor. You can experience some of my art in person at the Kitson Art Gallery in Tunkhannock, PA as well as the Slanted Art Co-Op in Montrose, PA.

I started Iron Odin in October of 2022 so I can create other items that do not particularly fall in line with the artwork style on Metal Relic.
