Located just north of downtown Tampa, Rustic Steel Creations is a gallery/workshop that showcases the work of local artist, Dominique Martinez. Martinez is a welding artist who takes odd bits of junk metal and transforms them into unique and eye-catching sculptures. Examples of his work adorn the exterior of his location featuring a changing exhibition of fire-breathing dragons, hockey players, robots, giant dogs and more. In addition to his sculptures, Martinez and his staff of experienced welders also create one-of-a-kind custom wrought iron railings and decorative steel gates. Some of his work can be viewed while touring around Tampa such as at Ulele Restaurant.
