Welding Wonder - Spherical Orientation Scultures




More. More! MORE!

I can't seem to get enough dimensions to play with.
My unquenchable thirst for the challenge, innovation and complexity of constructing sculptures that offer not just a 360 degree orientation but a spherical one, has (for quite some time) had me wondering about welding...
and metal...
and yes,
their relationship to powder coating.  They just seem like a friendly, little love triangle - and as Stephanie Meyer knows, those are a lot of fun to work with as a creative medium.

Eric introduced me to MIG welding this weekend.

























































































...and of course I have to play with photography a bit while capturing some of the spherical orientation possibilities of one of the pieces.  




























I look forward to doing some photos later after the pieces are powder coated:
 playing with shadows, 
displaying them on mirrors, 
photographing them with other objects 
and grouping them together into a bigger structure (yum, more composition play!)
