                                                  Amphora Mixed Media
                                            Or Treasure From The Deep

   Its not finished yet but aiming for a themed piece ...... not done one in a while..... The Amphora has been aged with
  metal reactive coatings ( paint ) in bronze ... brass... iron and verdigris...rust and sapphire patinas.....For a better word
  the base ? is powertex  very similar if not the same  to paverpol ..... unsure yet which way to go as far as colouring
  the rope .... net ... sand.
  As Always Comments Are Welcome

The texturnig looks much too heavy for my taste.

    Happy New Year George..... Happy New Year Les.   And A Happy New Year To Each And All.

   George  With the texture on the Amphora I was aiming for how a bronze Minoan amphora might look like after years under
   the sea and how things and texture might change.
   Looking Forward To Catching Up Sometime in April.
   
   Les   Its been a while since we have had the time to concentrate on a themed piece..... not there yet the rope might
    turn into metal cable.... age problem though

Happy New Year Di & Tony

Great to see another of your piece's. I love it!!!

To me the mounting as either got to be looking as if it was also brought up with the pot, which I feel would take something away from the pot. Or a complete contrast like white or gold.

Looking forward to seeing the finished piece.

All the best

   Agree and that's the dilemma at the moment .... Leave it as if it was just brought up and aged... or clean it up and
   make the support brighter ... As with most of this type of piece it will probably change colour a few times before
   its finished... Decisions  Decisions

This is going to be a nice piece and as I said elsewhere some old weathered rope from a boat yard would go down nicely
