Cal Lane-The Pug and the Proposition


These works had a dirty humor to them with a little pug staring at all these legs us wondering what he is going to do to them. The Pug has so many legs to choose from. Using the plasma cutter to draw or carve out the shape in the old rusted metal gave a very organic feeling to a man made thing. I reminded me of old grates over heater vent in old Victorian houses with the patterns going around the end of the oil can and the shape of the pug and legs in the middle. This work turned out to be a fun spin on a old found object.
