Blue Flame

$500.00

Blue Flame Mild steel, hand cut, torch burnt finish, freestanding. 26" tall x 11" wide x 7" deep

Blue flame burns hottest. Cleanest. In recovery they say that's what you become if you make it — stripped down, no filler, nothing left but the real thing. Most don't get there.

This piece started with one idea — flames. No blueprint, no plan. Just metal, a torch, and time. The plasma cut edges are left raw, exactly as they came off the tool. The color you see — the blues, purples, golds bleeding into each other — that's not paint. That's heat. Every inch of this piece was torch burnt to get that finish. The same fire that shaped it colored it.

Freestanding. One of a kind. The kind of thing that looks different every time the light changes.

Some pieces I make mean something specific. This one found its meaning after the fact. Make of that what you will.
