Experiment with found object, symbolic and dear to me: I placed this one on a black plate and end up really liking the reflection of light and color. Do you? Check out my other versions submerged in water and placed under a blue sky and or near a stucco wall.

This piece is created using a metal tin that I darkened in the fire, old wire, school scissors and some odd pieces that decided they belonged together. The holey piece is backed by a page from a math book so that the numbers show through the holes.

The halo of painted wire circles the piece and is used to hang the work. Inside the round tin is a spark plug with the word “seeing” on it. The base is an antique metal hinge part. This might be a good piece to hang near your creation station to inspire ideas!! The size, including the wire, is 5 inches by 13 inches.

The swan started out as part of a buckle and it's asymmetrical shape gave me the opportunity to continue the assymetry theme. I treated it to an ammonia patina to create a moody steampunk vibe. The antique clockworks was a perfect counter point. The chain is made up of 3 different vintage chains, punctuated on one side with a wonderful vintage key featuring a lion and on the other side a very vintage oblong clock face. A safety clasp keeps it all together. Riveted together to last a lifetime or more. SOLD
