Mermaid Diorama and Metal Art, minus a wheelbarrow

3/22/2014

Working on some brand new fun metal art pieces for the Saanich Penninsula SPAC show at the Mary Winspear upcoming in April. There will just be some sample working pics here as the finished products will have their  debut at the show.
   The metal and copper mermaid diorama was seriously the most fun I have had in a while and I plan on doing more of this fun found object storybook style art. The circular piece was also very back to my art school roots creative and I love it.

   Mystery of the missing wheelbarrow, now you see it, now you don't, wheel barrow cut up into hundreds of metal hearts to be threaded on strings. I can cut up one up to nothing in less than an hour. Looking for old metal blue or green rusty wheelbarrows!

Copper Mermaids and Rusty Things

   Rusty metal mermaid stakes, salmon, and garden heron stakes amongst other things in the last two weeks. Another trip to Brentwood Bay scrap yard too. A driveway of metal here at the studio out there in the rain with vinegar and salt added to hurry up the process, just love things that can be mechanically sped up with impatience, and a little science thrown in.
   Talking about science, I have also been playing around with copper and patinas, wow, really fun!!! Loving the copper mermaids and the crab.
