Army veteran and ASU alum Vance Leland stains his olive-branch sculpture on Saturday, April 20, 2024, at the School of Art’s warehouse. Half a dozen student veterans affiliated with the University are working on sculptures that began as soft clay and were then cast in resin-coated sand. Then, molten iron was poured into the form, resulting in 7-8 pound, 5-1/2 square pieces. Saturday’s final stage included staining a colored patina to the sculptures. They spent time with the propane torch and ferric solutions creating a patina on the large Tillman “Honor” logo. The process began by evenly heating the 30-pound iron sculpture to around 300 degrees. They added various oxidizing agents that infused colored pigment into the heated piece. The program is run by Bruce Ward, a veteran and ASU BFA alumnus working with the Pat Tillman Veterans Center and assisted by ASU art faculty. Photo by Charlie Leight/ASU News
