Copper Illusion II

detail

This is a redo of a painting I did about a year ago.  There is no copper in it.  I created the look of corroded copper/iron using aluminum foil and my iron paint.

I think I'm ready for Hollywood.  I can work in the prop department whenever they need something to look old and rusty.  LOL

"FUSION III" return of "lost" painting by Carol Nelson Fine Art

"FUSION III"

This is an incredible story.  In 2007, I dropped off two paintings at a gallery in Loveland, CO.  The names of the paintings, done in similar style, were Fusion II and Fusion III.

Some time later I received a check from the gallery for the sale of Fusion III. 

Time went by.  I FORGOT about the other painting I had at the gallery.  I know, it's like forgetting about one of your children, so I'm a bad mom.

A few days ago, I received a call from the gallery saying they were closing, and that I should come and get my painting.  When I went to pick up what I thought was Fusion II, there was THIS painting, Fusion III. 

I was shocked, because of the two, this one was by far, my favorite.  I had this painting marked "sold" on my website for 5 years!  They took good care of it, and it's just as beautiful as I remembered.
