Tin Art by Werner Bauer
Framed antique tin ceiling tiles.
713-294-4174

I create contemporary furniture, wall sculptures and other decorative items out of wood.
When the design calls for it stone and metal accents are used. Most of my current work contains
curved and shaped elements that draw the eye and create a sense of movement. My works are created
using mostly traditional woodworking and power carving techniques but I will use any technique
that will help me execute my ideas.
