Boredom, crap, and scrap

(Dry Hammers)

Boredom, crap, and scrap 1" tubing encased with cobalt. northstar blues and greens. Momkas American Beauty on the stem. Never used it before, and obviously the results werent as I expected. Guess I should have taken the time to check the color out online. Guess it isnt as bad as it could have been. First hammer, first successfull connection. Crappy camera. :)

lovely color combination. Would have looked fantastic on my parents coffee table in 1966. It certainly would have matched the decor of the time, anyway :). Forest green and momkas Martini Olive. stare at it long enough and you'll taste the tackiness

still not bad, i think, for being completely self taught, and working only a few short hours per week.

maybe a crappy camera
but you still can get some decent shots, try using a white T shirt or a sheet for a bankround, Tape it on the wall and let it hang to the floor... makes your peice stand out 10x better. also play around with lighting so you dont have to use camera flash.... keep on spinning peace
