Where I have been

SO it has been a while... a rather long while since the last post.  My excuse for this is the following:  I have been learning a new trade- WELDING!!!!
Such endeavours take time.  And that can be translated to me being slow at perfecting the art of welding.  It is a work in progress starting from accumulating the steel to thinking about assembling it to actually manipulating the material and finally welding.  The smallest thing can really take a vast amount of time!
This first piece was something fun made with a classmate while we were learning to weld with Oxy-acetylene.  The welds are rough but we had fun and were proud of the final piece.

After this, I worked on a sculpture that I saw once.  I like how it turned out.  The head is actually not welding.  I cast it in resin.

As fun as welding is, I am laying down my gloves (for the moment - I will come back to welding) and going to pursue pottery next.
