Domenico Belli Metal Art Sculpture Raffle ~ Get your TICKETS now for $10

 Domenico Belli was born in Patrica, a small town in the hill country approximately forty miles southeast from Rome. He started his work as metal worker at the age of sixteen and showed an early interest and talent for his job. At the age of eighteen, his parents decided to emigrated to America where he found employment as metal workers and welder and also developed his skills as an artist and designer. He started to create primitive sculptures from reclaimed steel for several years. He started about 10 years ago to discover his passion for the abstract and contemporary sculpture and it was love at first sight. Today he builds only large sculptures  sing stainless, Cor-Ten steel and Bronze.  He received many rewards for his sculptures. @DomenicoBelli shows his contemporary large metal sculpture all over the United States. One of the most important installation is in Italy, in the town of Patrica . It is a 20 ft tall cor-ten steel abstract sculpture called " Patrica Meja" and it is a tribute for all people who left this little town to emigrated in other country.
