Old Iron

 
IRON
oil
4" x 6"
Practiced using palette knife and larger brushes than I usually use.  We bought this old iron in Maine about twenty years ago.  I love the colors.  John thinks it's a calcium carbite iron, same thing used in old miner's lights.   Didn't show it, but paint on handle was worn with use... the poor soul.  Use it now for a door-stop.   Weighs a ton.
