Home Project Metal Fab

Our final project for Metal Fabrication is on the subject of home. I am remaking the metal book (formerly a purchased photo album) of homes of loved ones from my piece last quarter, What I Would Save In a Fire.

This is my house where I live now- ground down plasma cut sheet metal

I couldn't buy embroidery floss today because I forgot where the sewing store is and the art store only had big packs that included a lot of colors I don't need, so I used paint to plan out where I can anchor the colors.

This is my whole little book before I sanded it- the discoloration is from heat from the plasma cutter.

Here it is sanded, cleaned with denatured alcohol, and coated with clear spraypaint.
