The design is adapted from Erik's artwork used for the crazy intricate masks used for his paint and polished alloy etching. I love the way these freehand perforated designs work out so strikingly. I use line work as a guide and punch away at the holes using a variety of different sizes. The bike looks amazing, somehow it reminds me of intricate Italian baroque style furniture. The saddle was the final piece to an already highly decorative bike.
