Very cool stuff!  I especially like the objects that are still
recognizable as quotidian objects -- shovels, wheelbarrows, car doors
-- turned to lacework.  How spectacular would be a whole car done like
that, only that re-installing the door parts, head liners, trim
etc. would be an infuriating PITA.

Where is this lady located?

If you look closely at picture 10, the partially unrolled oil
drum:

you might be tempted to infer from the figures around the edge that
what's on the artist's mind could lead to very exciting lessons
indeed. 8-)

For my part, I need either lessons (flame-cutting lessons, that is) or
a new and better cutting torch.  Hey!  Justification for a new tool!
Yow!
