Meet This Artist: Steve Fagan, working with metal, wood, stained glass, and anything else that interests him

Smiling white man in gray henley shirt looking down at his drafting in his metal and woodworking shop.

Ever since he was a kid, Fagan has been a doer. Want to play punk guitar? He figured it out. Want to switch to old-time guitar? He figured it out. Want to build a cabin? He figured it out. Want to build a hydroelectric generator in a stream? Want to work with wood? Glass? Want to work with metal and wood and glass? Want to build high-dollar decks and mixed-media garden gates and trellises? Want to live as you wish without compromising your ideals? He figured it out.
