Painting in metal with fire.....well, maybe its an exaggeration, but it seems to be an applicable metaphor. Video is attached to see the process in action. The separate pieces of gold and silver are all meticulously assembled with tweezers and sweat in binding wire and pins, fluxed, and finally fused with a torch in a moment of trepidation and knife edge outcome. There may be an unusable puddle of metal after this, OR a one of a kind meditation and dedication to the moment of fusing and fire that i hope to share with others, in 18 karat gold, silver, and diamonds. What will the outcome be? Hopefully the finished piece will be available for viewing in the May of 08 posting!
