Description:

The Welder is one of a series of paintings I did as a commission for a foundry in Pittsburgh, McConway & Torley. The welder, Jeff, is a very experienced worker. As I sketched him and took reference photos, he continued to work in a relaxed way -- completely in control. I love the cool light of the welder contrasted with the warm orange and browns of the castings. The original is hanging at the administration building at the plant and is not for sale.
