About this artwork
This work is several years old. Made of metal, welded, I burned some paint on it, hence the patina. At my home it is outside all the time, but it is also a nice piece to put inside on a stand ... Unique in kind, just like all my works.
Because it is always outside, some rust is already coming back through the paint, a visual aspect that I like. Every few years I treat my sculptures with a mixture of 1/3 linseed oil and 2/3 turpentine. That offers… some protection and refreshes the sculptures. If this work is sold, I will of course do the same for the work in question.
