My art

So the art that I have been dabbling with is called Salvage art. You basically find something that is used but no longer being used and turn it into art, it quite fun and there are old doors/windows/bottle caps/etc. all over down here. Here is a few items I have finished.

A few impromptive project, we had a window pane missing from Hurricane Gustav that I had mended with some cardboard. It was time to put some plywood up (wood from remodeling project at work) and I had a little extra so I made a Croc. Croc made of old plywood, eyes are old ceramic electrical trinket and gear (green project).

My Pride and Joy this was my vision when I decided I wanted to start salvage arting. Window frame from a door way (bought at junk store for $5). Alligator made of old shelving unit at work, eyes are electrical trinkets (green project), scales are another trinket from green project. Painted with old paint from neighbors remodel. Mounted on cut out from an old door.

Old outdoor light fixture from green project, filled with beads from 2009 Mardi Gras.
