Sculpture Gallery | coat | coated | marilyn | monroe | powder | sculpture | steel | welded ![]() I am still working on this piece... It is made from MIG welded steel rod and bar and steel sheet that was all powder coated. It is both my first art welding project and powder coating project :) I am really happy with the powder coating finish, it is fairly easy to apply and the finish and colors are amazing. I am going to finish off the back with a wet looking black around the outline of her head and I am working on some ideas for the rest of the yellow background. The outer frame will end up being a wet black as well. Anyone messed around with powder coating much? I would love some ideas on application techniques any one is using. I am going to do some experimenting this week with some ideas I have with brushing powders or doing things like in the Rangoli style. |
