So I have not been posting as I have been beating my head on the wall hoping something would happen or the art menahunies would just drop something off one night. My first shot was going to be a aluminum shirt lamp but I hated it.

Not my favorite ?

But I came up with something earlier this week and I'm stoked on it
12x12 aluminum with a two sided bamboo frame held together by rope.
The aluminum will be ground and sprayed with candy color and automotive clear
And the striped with one shot enamel.
And here we go...

Flat panel

Put 90 degree bends on both ends

Hammered the ends over 1/2 inch round stock for the rope to go thru

And now to sand first 80 grit then 180 and 320 and 500 and 1000 and
2000 and then grind the flower in to it

And this is the pattern for the shirt. Oh candy paint I hear you calling

Every one has some really cool work on the thread getting excited for the 31st.
