Our money is worth less than what it used to be. Precious metals like silver and gold however have stayed steady. In the words of my ex husband. “The dollar may go up and down but gold and silver are always worth something.”
As an investment product, silver is available in coin or ingot form. Ingots are generally silver ingots of pure bullion cast in a convenient size and shape. Coins have a currency value or they are actually defined as ingots.

The standard practice for refining Platinum Group Metals after they have been smelted involves a series a steps that rely on hydrometallurgy, or the use of chemical processes carried out in water-based solutions. Undertaken in stages, the leach and metal recovery processes conducted throughout the refining phase are designed to selectively extract nickel, iron, copper, and other base metals from the Platinum Group Metals. These activities produce a higher-grade PGM filter cake. The first step involves using an autoclave leach process (at 150 degrees Celsius) for partial oxidation of the bulk concentrate obtained from the smelter. This is frequently compared to a pressure cooker in which the desired minerals break down in preparation for the cyanidation process. The hot slurry released from the pressure cooker is allowed to continue to leach in a series of tanks open to the atmosphere. As a result, this process is often referred to as the ‘atmospheric leach circuit.&r

I get ideas and then when I actually get to work on a particular painting, it’s usually around midnight or something. So yesterday evening I bought a 36″x48″ canvas and began work.
Most of my work lacks a really warm feel, so I started with a green field and incorporated a copper metallic and a pewter metallic paint into the green with a bright orange that faded throughout to give it more warmth.
Pardon the crappy image, but my camera is on the fritz again. Hopefully my cell phone image above gives you more of the look that the background eventually had with the green, metallic and the orange created.
Foreground became apparent with the blue squarish-swirl-thingy. Masking it off and working outward created the feeling of the painting coming directly at the viewer. This was followed by some (my wife calls it dribblings) smaller poured lines of blue running throughout.
By the way, yes I am working on the bed at …. what time was that again?
