About The Artwork
"The Violinist" is part of a series I did using found rusted objects and creating narratives with them. I had fun rummaging in old junk yards, antique stores and yard sales amassing quite a collection of materials to play around with. I start by constructing a wooded box and layering it with about 20 coats of wax mixed with resin which, when dry, becomes very hard and durable. Each coat had to be fused onto the one before it with a heat gun or torch. I then drill small holes and sew the objects into the box. Finally, by etching into the wax, I fill the lines with a white oil stick for a very subtle background with images related to the collaged image. The photo is antique as well. The overall color is a pale yellow cream color. Hardware for hanging is fixed onto the back.
