Welded Steel Sculptures
The process for developing these Welded Steel Sculptures is partly dependent on what kinds of interesting steel objects I can find. Old springs - as in the Blue Springman; interesting shapes, old gears or wheels, any kind of formed or shaped steel. All sorts of anything steel. Painted steel is OK. In the sculpture I produce, some spots are welded, some are riveted, some are held together with wire or even special glue. The Fluorescent Man is welded and painted steel with acrylic paint and varnish. Blue Springman is a "found- object" sculpture, left as is. The type of welding I am doing on these sculptures is MIG welding.
