Here is a piece I just had framed. It is repoussed and chased in 16 gauge copper.

Rikki,

Thanks for the compliment. The copper work is mine. I hope to make several others in different styles. Landscapes, flora, fauna etc. Next year I am teaching a workshop in Repoussed faces at the local City Parks & Rec center. My passion for metalwork is what has honed my interest and study of the A&C Movement.

This closeup shows the relief created by use of the hammer and chasing and embosing tools. The thickness of the metal allows for this depth.

Don,

It was your initial interest in metal techniques to make Ginkgo leaves that motivated me to make these.
