Jesus Built My Hot Rod

What do you do with the leftover pieces after you chop up a classic car to build a range hood? When we were faced with that problem, Chris decided to build an art piece. Using sheet metal from the fenders of a ‘57 Chevy, patterned stamped metal, oil and acrylic paints, various hardware, and fire, this piece was built to a soundtrack of early 80’s Texas punk music.
Here’s some video footage of the process.
And here’s a photo of the finished painting:

Just stumbled across this… I love the Jackson Pollock reference! I’m not a big fan of much that is “Pollock-inspired”, but you capture a certain something of his intensity in painting.
