and a vintage plastic rose completes the mixed-media piece

Each is unique and will vary

the pigments are securely bound to the painting surface which allows work done in egg tempera to survive for centuries

Open P07873-P00123 and a vintage plastic roseThis bronze sculpture was cast using a modified lost wax process called ice casting. This work celebrates the opening of our hearts to give and receive love and the flower opening above it accents this premise. The patina is a mixture of ferric nitrate applied hot and contemporary metal stains applied cold. The base is walnut which is stained a cherry red to match the heart. One of a kind piece Signed by the artist Materials: Bronze
