Details

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.
