In this Jan. 6, 2016 photo, metal artist Dave Dardis poses in his Rainmaker Art Studio on the end of the Makanda Boardwalk, one of Southern Illinois' premiere artist colonies in Makanda, Ill. He works almost exclusively with metal, creating intricate pendants, rings and tiaras, out of bronze and copper bent into fantastic patterns. His studio is arranged in long isles of works in progress, from those trays of jewelry to giant metal bugs in various states of assembly to elaborate metal sculptures, some of which have been made into fountains.
