©2016 Barry Smith - Rusty and patinated detail of a door lock |
I'm about to start 4-6 more lamps and therefore started to select possible objects and place them on the work table so I can wander around and think about them - to see if I can add other bits to a core piece; and/or whether I can funds bases for pieces; and/or whether I can find pieces I can tap threads into .
Anyway I thought I might share a few images of what is currently on the table and will be worked on in the next few days or put back into 'stock'.

A lot of work ahead for you.
ReplyDeleteWhat a treasure trove, Barry! I know I'd never be able to make anything from those wonderful patinated pieces. I'd just enjoy looking at them. In fact, I should admit that's my problem. I spend too long admiring and not enough time making!
