Mixed Media Art Painting "Relic" by Colorado Mixed Media Artist Carol Nelson

This is another in my rust series.  In addition to the rusted iron paint used throughout the piece, there is mica flake on the two horizontal bars, and a flattened, rusted Snapple bottle cap that I ran over with my car  in the lower left.  The other rounded shapes in the lower section are actually indentations in the substrate, which is extruded polystyrene.   The background is handmade metallic paper mounted on a piece of MDF board.

Wall Sculpture,Mixed Media Sculpture "C4, 10413" by Colorado Mixed Media Abstract Artist Carol Nelson

This is another in my mini wall sculpture series of "combines."  This one could be called Red Fish Box for obvious reasons.  It has a secret compartment - I can think of all kinds of things to put in there.

This combine also features some rusted elements, a fish, a key, some metal embellishments, some left over tile, and a small metal box that opens.

Mixed Media Wall Sculpture "C3" by Colorado Mixed Media Artist Carol Nelson

                                               

This sculpture is made up of found objects that have been painted with iron paint, which is then rusted.  Looking carefully, you can see an old bottle cap (which was already rusted), a small canvas, a spool that held ribbon, some leftover tile from my bathroom project, the top of a spice bottle, part of a light fixture, and a fluted nut.

I love turning trash into art, and working three dimensional.  This "combination"  can hang on a wall or be displayed on a small easel.

C2 - Random Assortment 12062 mixed media wall sculpture by Carol Nelson Fine Art

C2 - Random Assortment

 

 

This is my second in my Combinations Series.  I am having fun with these little wall sculptures.  I am also getting better at using my new table saw.  At first I was afraid to use it. It has one big-a** 10" blade that is sharp and angry looking - kind of scary.  

So far, I still have all ten of my fingers and I love the way it makes doing 45 degree angles a cinch.
