Diamonds and Rust Shaman

Inspired by ancient rock art, rust, and Joan Baez, the Diamonds and Rust Shaman is made almost entirely from repurposed metal. It features an Ancestral Pueblo-inspired petroglyph image plasma cut by hand into the flame painted copper piece. The other copper sheet has been distressed and left unsealed so that it can eventually achieve a classic patina.

The abstract green-tinted head is made of resin and mica powder, including ground turquoise from the American Southwest. The hair/feathers and arms come from old snap ties commonly used in construction.

Ready to hang indoors or under a full moon, this marriage of rustic and fine art makes an unforgettable gift for you or someone else.
