stuff

Still no time (or desire?) to start new and large works, so I do little things while testing electro-etching.

A new filigree pattern, a bit smaller than the first one :


And a new seal made from a bolt, this time using a new and more little one :

Bolt

Digging in the garden, I made an almost archeological discovery, an old bolt eaten by rust. I cleaned it a bit, not too much for the patina to remain and, as I found it really beautiful, I decided to find another use for it.


I turned it into a seal by electro-etching a man hole cover pattern on his head.


And the result is perfectly functional as you can see.


This is how to turn rubbish into design and original object :-)
