Elliott Metal Works

Elaine and Bill Snell live in Greenville, South Carolina and work as a team to create their metal artwork. Elaine studied Fine Arts at the College of Charleston in South Carolina and enjoyed teaching art to middle and high school students for over 20 years. She has taught and worked in a variety of mediums including ceramics, printmaking, drawing and painting. Bill studied architecture and Building Sciences at Auburn and Clemson, and has worked in various capacities as a carpenter, designer, engineer, and metal fabricator since the early 1980s.

They produce their work from within Elliott Metal Works, a family owned and run metal working business started by Elaine's grandfather and now run by Bill and Elaine. Their metal artwork began with a custom balcony rail requested by a friend on the Carolina coast. Bill enjoyed the process and began creating metal silhouettes and sculptures. The possibilities began to grow and Elaine was recruited to head the design and creation of new work.

Elliott Metal Works is now called Black Cat Artworks!
