Orchid Plant


Here's the latest addition to my Farmers Market Series. The plant is mild steel leaves, roots ,stem,and old blossom and stand. The blossom is copper, brass and stainless steel. I learned that perpendicular scratches to the stem's length enhanced the colors that occurred from the welding heat affected zone.All the materials,except a screw and a nut,and weldment are reused(by accident).
