Copper panel!

Here is a sample of my favorite copper patina.  Just like the patina I did on the bar it is one of a kind, I could not make one the same if I tried.  Wouldent you love to hang two of these on your wall.  5 feet by 3 feet, with a black stell frame!

fall is here!

I love fall the weather feels perfect and it is crisp in the mornings and evenings.  I also can’t wait for the leaves to change.  I am so ready that I just had to make some for sale.

copper fans

Here are two fans I am working on.  I have not decided what to do with them yet, though I am happy with how they turned out.  The hammer marks add a wonderful texture. 

 

Damascus Knives

I love working with Iron, and forging these two knives was very enjoyable.  I made them as a single billet and forge welded them with a hammer and anvil.  They have Two Hundred Twenty-Four layers.

I made the Handles out of English walnut and silver with Ivory nut.  Here is a close up shot of the Damascus layers!  They are in the style of drop point skinners that any frontiersman might carry.

Orchid

This Is the first orchid I have ever made, it was a lot of fun and I mounted it in a piece of drift wood.

copper panel bar

Here is my latest work! Its a custom copper panel for a bar, I had a great time doing this piece. I used different chemicals activated by heat for the patina. Here is a full shot of the kitchen that my piece went into, the kitchen is still not finished, notice the columns an each end, and the black trim. I did this with one of the best cabinet makers in our region! Here is a link to his site  www.customwoodworkbyjim.com 

From one side to the other it tells a story, it is so different in every spot it keeps you looking, I cant wait to do some more work like this.

Here it is with its first coat of sealer, and getting signed!

close up shot, I love the blue in it. I wish a photograph could do it some justice, I guess you will have to order one to see what you’ll get.

Wire Jewelry
