According to you guy's, what would be the best way to advertize my art and myself as a sculptor? Are there any magazines or places that you would recommend?

Good day all, I am very inexperienced with connecting ferris to non ferris. As I understand it, copper brass bronze etc. may be braised to steel with a standard flux coated bronze rod. On occasion I use bronze rod to just fill in to add color. Could I use a non lead solder for color and get the same results. Example being; I just completed a beefalo as half the people that viewed it saw it as a bull the other half a Bison. I used a piece of bus tail pipe for the body and a 45 degree pipe fitting for the head then layered the head end with bicycle chain tapering down to mid-way of the back. I filled in most of the chain links with weld bead leaving what was hanging over the sides untouched so they would move. Filling in with mig bead gave the appearance of fur. Then I splashed the top hump with bronze rod giving a more rustic look. Is this a practical way to add texture and color or is there a better way. Someone gave me 2 silver braising rods, would they have worked for color as well? Could I drip low temp solder to fill in? Oh, I used XL draft horseshoes for legs and bead covered bolts for holves.

I created 5 brooches for exhibit at the Idyllwild Exhibition Center during the Metals Week workshops. I also took a brooch made for an exhibit in New York a few years ago. I was thrilled to have sold 4 of the six brooches during the exhibition.
