I second what Carol said, plus it`s powerful when you look at the size of the man, and then the furnace and fire. Good job.

You darkened background draws right to the action of the fire and furnace. Congratulations.

As you might guess, I work in a foundry. I ended up selling 5 different originals of this painting, with slight differences of course. This is a dramatic moment in the melting process. The melter depicted here, Gary, is very experienced. People who know him can recognize him by his "lean."

Artist's Description

The melter uses an air hose to inject pure oxygen into the arc furnace, causing a bright burst of flame as the carbon and other impurities burn off. To the side are shovels already loaded with additives ready to be added to the molten metal if needed. The heat takes about an hour before it is ready to be tapped.

I love those warm (no, hot!) colors, and the little touch of cool with the melters greens (fire retardant clothing.)

I am a Juried Artist Member (JAM) of Studio Art Quilt Associates (SAQA). I have been sewing since I was 13, and was a painter before turning to art quilts. They attracted me because of the possibilities for texture and dimension. My main method of construction is called...
