This elegant two-barred cross is crafted by Alejandro de Esesarte who cuts the image from steel sheets, then hammers it smooth. The cross is then hand-painted in acrylics with a sun inspired design, no doubt influenced by the semi desert climate of his home state of Jalisco. He then gives it a crackled finish for visual interest.

Beautiful Work of Art Including the Workmanship and Colors.

We love this wonderfully designed and crafted piece! It has transformed a plain brick wall on our front porch to a unique focal point that receives many compliments. It makes me smile every time I go in and out of our home!

This arrived today and it is gorgeous! I originally was going to hang it outside by my writing station but it worked so beautifully on my living room wall, so that is where I placed it. The quality of the product is amazing, the colors vibrant and its just beautiful. The artists talents are obvious. Thank you sir for creating such beautiful art. It truly heals.
You can find our steel wall art 'Solar Cross' by Alejandro de Esesarte in wall decor categories such as Hand Painted Crosses, Cross Crosses, Modern Crosses, Abstract Crosses and Steel Crosses. Enjoy exploring these sections for other Novica treasures.

Confronting Adversity
"I am on the autism spectrum. Because of my ASD, I could not hold a job very long. I am totally isolated from people. So I was forced to try to make my own way in order to survive. My only interactions are those needed to make and sell my art. I am obsessed with perfection and beauty, quality and detail in my metal sculptures. Novica found me at a trade show and took me out of poverty. Thanks to my artistic success, I now have economic independence and total liberty. A special thanks to those who purchase my designs. Thank you for giving me my identity and value."
