Next, he writes a program for the plasma cutter to cut the metal to the exact dimensions he needs. He works the metal using many different tools depending on what he wants the finished product to look like.<\/p>\n<p>Brent finishes some pieces with paint and some by creating a chemical reaction on the surface of the metal. One process actually causes the metal to rust and Brent stops that reaction and seals the metal when he gets the color he is looking for.<\/p>\n<p>Brent\u2019s work can also be seen at Saturday Downtown Market\u2019s, Miss Lucille\u2019s Marketplace and on his website at <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.metalconceptsdesign.com\" >www.metalconceptsdesign.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The Planters-Hilldale branch is located at 1971 Madison Street. The exhibit rotates the First Thursday of each month and is open to the public during regular bank hours: 8:30am-4:00pm, Monday-Thursday, and 8:30am-5:30pm, Friday.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Clarksville, TN \u2013 The Planters Bank-Hilldale Gallery will feature metal art from local artist Brent Streeter Thursday, August 1st \u2013 Wednesday, September 4th.
