Intent on his work, an artist puts brush to canvas, carefully selecting colors from the palette in one hand. Armando Ramirez resurrects discarded auto parts and metal, giving them a new purpose as art. A spark plug body, galvanized wire, die-cut scraps and screws all ingeniously fulfill distinct roles in this original sculpture.
Ramírez does not give his sculptures a fine polished finish, therefore smudges and scratches may be present.
You can find our auto part sculpture 'Rustic Artist at Work' by Armando Ramirez in categories such as Rustic Sculpture and Metal Sculpture. Enjoy exploring these sections for other Novica treasures.
