2 New Flowers

I worked out two new flowers tonight, bringing the total to 7, I think. I’d been on hiatus for awhile with this project, so it felt good to go out there and knock a couple out. I have been sketching ideas for other flowers, and I think I’m most happy with the smaller one with 9 small flowers, one I sketched out a couple weeks ago. The stems are made of pop rivets, a tool I haven’t used in awhile. Pretty fun. I think I might expand on this idea again in the near future. I like them all massed together. Might try some small circular flowers.

Here’s another large circular flower. I got a little Jackson Pollock with the solder. It was really flowing for me today for some reason.

I have been working lately more on a yellow cedar wall piece, adding texture with the crooked knives. Hopefully I’ll post that this week; it’s almost done.

    Also, spent a little more time setting these photos up than I usually do!

    The pictures look good. I like the simplicity of the two flowers. The first one is especially appealing, it reminds me of the vote towards the 5×5 and of the show we had together in my old apartment. I need to go back and see if the light box is still there. I have not moved it since we installed it. The people that have lived in the apartment since have told me that they really like having it in there!

    I can’t even remember: does it still say “THE CLOCK?” You don’t have any pictures from that show, do you?
