How I Made Cyclops Blue
This is a complete overview on how "Cyclops Blue" was made. This is a result of many years of practice and refining techniques in order to create these pieces. Enjoy!
Stage 1
I had this idea when I combined a studio lamp and an old car jack, realising it would make an amazing lamp!
Stage 2
I started by grinding the rust off the studio lamp and the car jack. I also masked it so that I can apply paint and start to abstract it.
Stage 3
This is what the lamp looked like once it was fully masked. The masking helps from paint seeping onto other parts of the lamp.
Stage 4
This is the final stage. I have various techniques in order to get different variations of abstracts. I applied a streaky effect to this piece along with swirls to have a refined look and making it last years. There is one layer of paint and at least 6 layers of clearcoat on. This is to protect it from damage.
