Silhouette in Steel, 01
This one is special to me. It’s one of the few pieces I have made as strictly an art piece, is one of a kind, and offers several innovations in my technique. The swan, captured in silhouette, is held onto its base by two rivets- copper rivets. But what is really wild is that the rivets don’t come through the back! I developed a technique on my own to fasten the copper into the back plate, which is only 3/16” thick! It also features a smooth forge weld holding the scrolls together that form the “wings”, and a certain shape cleverly conveys the concept of the cranium of the creature.
This piece has an oiled finish, and you are more than welcome to reach out with questions regarding it- I intend for this to last until the second coming of Christ, so I’m happy to help. The longevity of this piece in its service to you is so important to me that I’ve even added an optional form field upon purchase, where you can simply submit that you would like information on maintaining the finish quality and beauty of the piece.
You can find some progress photos in portfolio page!
Thanks for looking, and God bless you!
