close up of the crown |
Remember the carpet tack strips I was working with? Well here is what i have done with them so far: painted them with watered down acrylic.
Nailed them down to a board-using mostly nails i pulled out of my concrete along w/the strips. I have a piece of rusted metal that i got
off some ranch land south of here (thanks Greg!) and Gary and I cut out the heart shape w/the cut-off wheel. It will now be attached to the colored strips when i figure which direction I want it to sit. I'll add a quote to it, a hanger and it will be done-total recycled exept for the board it's nailed to!

Love the idea, and the colors are perfect with the rusty heart. I could see a story with the nails piercing the heart. Nowaday, every art piece HAS to have a story. You can make one up or have something real to attach to the back. Just a thought. I think you should make more and see what else explodes from this idea.
