Description: I designed "Fluidity" to take full advantage of the beautiful tones and hues produced by copper and metal.  The background of the piece is hand brushed aluminum.  The focus of the piece is a floating copper piece that I etched and brushed mechanically and by hand to reach the desired fluid/flowing design.  The artwork will captivate the viewer at every angle with an array of light patterns and will compliment any modern / contemporary home or office.

The entire artwork is protected with a protective clear coating.  However, the copper elements will naturally darken and become richer over time -- Adding tot he visual effect.  The 2"+ total depth of the frame gives the artwork more substance and visual definition. Also, I place 1/2" deep rubber guards on the back of the piece (hidden from view) which serve two functions: (1) They protect your wall and the artwork from each other and, (2) they also add a "floating" effect when hung on your wall.

Elements Used: Aluminum, Copper, wood & repurposed wood composites.

Size & Weight: 39¼”x23½”x2½ - Floats 1/2" off the wall when hung. Weighs about 18 pounds (a bit more when shipped).

Signed Certificate of Authenticity: This artwork will include a Certificate of Authenticity (COA). The COA will include pertinent information about the artwork and my signature.

Display & Lighting: This artwork is designed for display in an indoor environment. Because of metal's natural reflective nature, a variety of lighting sources will compliment this artwork in aesthetically pleasing ways. This piece is ready to hang as soon as received. A heavy duty mounting bracket(s) is securely attached to the back of the piece and matching drywall mounting hardware is included with the artwork.

Please Note: The sample image(s) have been compressed for optimal web download and do not do full justice to viewing the artwork in person. Slight color variations may also be a factor due to color variations from monitor to monitor -- Best efforts are made to take clear photographs of each piece for your review.

Also, there are mirrored stainless steel pieces in this artwork which will reflect hues and color tones from the room -- For the exception of the copper pieces, the color tones you see on the photo are reflections from the studio the photo was taken in.

 REDUCE, REUSE, RECYCLE!  I love nature and I am a strong believer that minor changes can exponentially lead to a major positive impact. I do my best to recycle, repurpose, reuse and be the best conservationalist that I can be in my personal life and in my artwork. I purchase metals from mills that produce the bulk of their product from recycled materials and I always look for Earth friendly options to create my metal art. Many of my artworks also utilize "found objects" (recycled materials) and are guided by my love of nature. The majority of the elements that constitute this artwork come from recycled industrial metals and repurposed materials.
