Local welding artist, Tim Navin, calls Fruita, Colorado home. Tim’s love for creating purposeful pieces of art started at a young age from watching his dad create heirloom furniture in his woodworking shop. Looking for a new adventure after college, he discovered welding and found his medium of choice to work with.
As the owner of Sparks Fly Studio Ltd.,Tim can be found creating pieces of functional art, doing custom metal fabrication, and making industrial style furniture. Tim lives to test the limits as to what can be done when you are sewing with fire. One never knows what project he’ll be working on next. What you can be sure of though, is any piece (big or small) that comes out of his studio will be handcrafted, intentionally designed and built to stand the test of time.
