00:00 - Spent the day photographing the dog, here are some quick images from my I-pad test shots. Kind of makes me wonder why bother with a proper camera. #sculpture #sculptures #steampunk #dogs #photography #alberta411 #yycnow #metalwork
- This photo of my first suit of mouse armour I made in 1986 has been going around social media these days. Photo by Charles Lawton-Brain. #mousearmour #catarmour #jeffdeboer #gothicart #jewellery #metalarts #miceofinstagram #mouseartist #mouseart #charleslewtonbrain
- Replying to @fasc1nateI was the artist tasked with creating metalwork that described the missing parts and tail. I had the privilege of getting up close to this many times during the process. It’s the most mind blowing thing I have ever seen!

00:00 - Know anyone who might want two giant wind up tin toys? After 20 years of entertaining the public at Calgary’s international airport I have been asked to decommission them this May. If a museum, mall or someone with a very big living room would want them please contact me.
- A quick video of the finished Sutton Hoo cat! Next week a proper photo session and then on to the next project. #suttonhoohelmet #jeffdeboer #catarmour #mousearmour #jewllery #chasingandrepousse #vikingarmor #metalartistry #fantasyarmour #natgeo #glenbowmuseum #auarts
