Iris

I dismantled a real Iris to get my design for the copper Iris seen here! I used the real petals as a template to draw a pattern on the copper sheeting.

Here is another view.

For the base I hammered a copper bowl and flipped it over for sturdy support. Like much of my work this piece is made from recycled or found objects.
