Details

Armando Ramirez transforms a variety of scrap metal pieces into an endearing statuette featuring a pediatrician and a little girl. Their bodies are shaped from spark plugs, their limbs from long screws, and their heads are made from the remnants left on a die machine.

Please note it is the artist's intention not to give his sculptures a fine polished finish, therefore smudges and scratches may be present.

“Clever auto part sculpture”

I bought one of these pediatricians for my nephew who is a pediatrician. He loves it and told me it is very cute. I also bought one for my personal doctor. She loves hers, too. Armando Ramirez is very creative--a true artisan.. I have bought several of his sculptures and have loved every one of them and so have the peopleI have given them to.. I turned the Barber sculpture into a Retinologist giving an eye injection. When I look at them, they do not seem like they are made out of scrap auto parts. All I see is a delightful showpiece.
