This was the front of the scrap yard, at various states of accumulation. Dad was clever at turning one thing into another when it came to lifting cars. Like the character in the Red Green show, he sometimes got unexpected results! He never made a lot of money in his scrap metal business, but we never went hungry.
Welcome to Joan Steacy's studio and blog!
I'd like to share what I've been doing lately and what I've done in the past with interested people. I'll be posting ongoing projects with my thoughts and ideas and I hope you'll comment, thanks!
My bio/graphic memoir Aurora Borealice has been picked up for publication in Spring 2019 by Conundrum Press.

SO, THAT'S THAT! Continued every friday...
I just noticed a misplaced modifier in my dad's quote - oops! Anyway, I always wondered why my dad got into the scrap metal business. I'm thinking he was influenced in some way by the scrap metal drives during the war years, so maybe we can thank the war for bringing us recycling!
