Afternoon everyone…..
As you all know already I’m right around the corner from my deadline of install. I was beginning to not stress as much, until around 9am this morning.
I need to spray finish in order to complete pieces for this job. Well Mother Nature had different plans. It was lightly raining all early morning, but just after 9am the skies opened up and so did the wind.
I absolutely need to keep my door open when I spray, and the wind was carrying the rain over six feet into my shop making it extremely difficult to work. I had to move stuff all over the shop to back up my spray area so my pieces didn’t get wet.
Not only that, the weather really affected the drying time causing major delays. Now I’m behind again with one day left to make it happen. I need lots of luck!!!!
On a different note:
Appreciating fine things is something most people overlook. They enjoy them but have no real understanding of what it takes to make them. Which not only applies to what I do but to hand poured silver as well……
Most people assume that there is some kind of mold for these pours. That is true for maybe twenty to thirty percent of my stuff. The rest are done with impressions in delft clay. Which is a very tedious.
This piece is from Ray Brockman a long time OG of the silvergoldstacker community. He started pouring silver under the name Toxic Bullion. I have many pieces from him as well. I have probably shown off a few before.
Here is the piece….
