Description
This macro image features the architectural feature of an antique door handle and the color and patina of rust and chipped, peeling paint.
The predominant color is an icy blue, like a robin's egg. There are large areas of red orange rust. There are also touches of a bright yellow which remind me of the color of an egg yolk.
The weathered paint has peeled off altogether in some areas of this semi abstract image. Elsewhere, the paint is cracked and flaking. The crackle lines provide interesting lines and shapes when viewed close up. This great texture and patina only comes with age and exposure to the elements. I love finding great natural abstracts like this!

Revisiting this incredible creativity. It takes an artist to see the beauty in rust and decay. It is just beauty, now! F/L
