Studio Development: Development of Mild Steel Piece

The finish:

• The welds on each of the four corners have been grinded back now to give the frame a smooth, shiny and consistent look. This works really well. 
• This frame aspect is becoming quite a consistent theme with my work, and I think perhaps it is important to consider mild steel frames on all pieces of work. 
• Another aspect of this piece was whether I was going to varnish it. I have bought some spray varnish, and oils for it, but I really don't want to use anything on it. The piece looks really good as it is, and I would have only varnished it to protect it from rust. I think I will leave the varnish.
