medium
My work is a collaboration of original selected "object" I then introduce other materials. Acrylic is cut formed and polished. 3-D shape is also introduced using an oven to heat the material. I use selected hard woods and use a burning technique with a gas torch to highlight grain and finish. Different textures are also achieved on metal using mechanical and manual techniques.
