Once in a while I give myself permission to play and drag out almost every type of material that I can think of to create a beautiful mess. I holed up in my art studio and hunkered down for a few hours of sheer bliss and created some metal pendants using cold connection techniques. The hotter it gets outside, the more cold connecting I do. The more tools I get to use, the better I enjoy the whole process (until clean up time.) When I get into this state, there is barely room to walk around and every surface is covered with some type of supplies. I tend to be a hunter and gatherer of potential projects and then let them sit until I either :
1. Finish them
2. Procrastinate about them
4. Deconstruct them
6. And repeat...
Beautiful pieces! Cold connections during hot weather is a great idea — I might have to try some of that this summer. 🙂
Thank you. Even as much as I love to, with the high temperatures, it’s not very inviting to sit in front of a hot torch. Maybe someday, a temperature controlled torch area will pop up for me.
I can see that You had some fun there…I love that too to be free and play with diff parts…to see what turns up..Those are very nice and I think *be Peace* is a favo..Here it is a bit cold today had to wear something on my head when walking in the woods (but I feel cold easily ) should do some soldering may be..hot work 🙂 xxx B
Thank you. Well, I think it was 101 degrees yesterday, with 30-60 mph winds. After working outside all day, I felt like a dried out leaf:)
Looks like it’s all worth it and you had a ball!
