Dancing Girl


This is a metal embossing piece of work which I made years ago.
This is done by tracing the pattern on an aluminum sheet and embossing it with rounded tools. The tracing and embossing is done on the wrong side of the sheet. There are special tools available for embossing. But you can use any rounded object found at home to emboss. To add color to the work, anti-rust paint is used. This paint can be thinned to get different shades.
