This piece of automobile art is a freehanging, copper foiled, Porsche 911. It is framed in black lacquered wood. The windshield wipers, hood details, and lettering are all sandblasted into flash glasses of various colors (Flash Glass: a sheet of glass [often clear glass] with a second, thinner layer of colored glass fused to one surface... by sandblasting through the thin colored layer, the clear layer is revealed). Notice the extremely odd shapes of the pieces of glass, such as the background pieces. The upper left-hand background piece alone took almost an hour to cut and grind! The incorporation of very odd shaped pieces is part of the design style that I have developed that makes my work stand out from that of other craftspeople in this medium. In achieving the skills necessary to do this, I have been able to design out most of the extraneous lines that you will see in other people's work. The craftsmanship of this artwork is flawless! As with all of my pieces, I settle for nothing less! |
