At Artistry in Aluminium by Paul Pennell, I specialise in repousse work, a timeless technique that transforms flat metal into stunning three-dimensional pieces. My craftsmanship comes from over 40 years as a traditional panel beater making bespoke wings and bodies for some of the world's finest cars and reflects a deep respect for traditional embossing and chasing methods, ensuring each item is a true one off work of art. and comes with engraved signature and certificate of Authenticity and perfect interior design artwork .
Draw initial artwork , I always like to work from photographs as this helps to get the perspective right but is an acquired knack because as the pictured is formed and becomes 3 dimensional the perspective changes and what looks perfect on paper has to be altered to look correct 3 dimensionally.
Picture formed and shaped entirely by hand using basic traditional hand tools and heated and annealed as necessary. Once the metal has been shaped it is strong and rigid and ready to be polished without loosing any of its shape.
Finishing this can be done in a number of ways and is very much personal preference , some pictures are almost entirely polished this gives fantastic reflections and you can see them alter as you walk around a room . The majority of pictures I create are a mixture of polished and painted backgrounds but am always happy to discuss your preferences to create your dream artwork .
Once artwork is completed tracings are made and the image is engraved onto the aluminium sheet and then the shaping can begin and is done entirely by hand using only basic hand tools and requires skill at the highest level and huge concentration.
Metalwork almost finished awaiting final detailing then ready to polish and paint background to choice .
Completed Picture with matt black background which is very popular as emphasises the contrast with the polished finish and seamlessly blends with existing decor.
Paul's life revolves around his art and invites you to collaborate with him on your one off commission .Whether you have a specific design in mind or wish to create a unique vision of your own , together we can bring it to fruition as a stunning work of art for you and future generations.
I pride myself on having a flawless reputation based on honesty and fairness so all commissions are priced before I start and strictly based based on the amount of time and complexity of the work Price for a standard size 60 by 80 cms one off commission is £795.00 framed ready to hang but particularly complex technical subjects such as early Motor bikes , can be twice that figure whereas Super Bikes with fairings are approx half that so can price your picture as soon as I know what's involved.
