I started this piece a few weeks ago. The idea of building an "Urban Tree" stems from the tree-like forms I've been drawing in the lil' guys world. I'm really excited to get the rust finished up, then install it in a location where the cast shadow can play with the landscape.
"Urban Tree #1"
Welded steel with rust patina.

The scale of the piece really draws you into it's space. I'm planning on building more. The creation of shade in the desert is super nice.
