Hands

Cool Bro! You`ve capture

NELSON - Sunday, November 30, 2008 - 7:50pm

Cool Bro!
You`ve capture hand expression very well. My favorite, that one with the peace and love is what we need more of huh. Maybe going back to the sixties would not be so bad, a more relaxed, earthy conception of life... who knows! Nelson.

Peace,Love, Metal

Hi Nelson,
Thank you.The "peace" hand is at the top for a reason. That's my favorite too. I think we need to glean some of the good stuff from each era in our history. The wheel is still in spin.
Peace,eh?
Frank

Spindly and a tad creepy...

Frank Castiglione - Sunday, November 30, 2008 - 9:45pm

Hi Chuck,
Thank you.I have been making some hands out of 1/2" re-rod and they look less skeletal,but I have to cut each finger section separately and do lots of welding.The 3/8" re-rod is a bit spindly but I can bend it easily cold. Each arm is composed of two pieces of re-rod.You can't see this in the photo. The thing weighs at least thirty pounds though.Glad you like it.

Nice work Frank, lots of

Nice work Frank, lots of expression in this piece. I really like this style you have developed to try to express a complicated object with as few pieces as possible. You seem to have a knack for conveying that image very well.

Hey Frank.
Re-bar can be fun. This is a great piece and such a cool idea. I wondered about the questionable hand gestures, I'm sure they were popular! Thanks for the pictures.
