Beginning Repouse

Bob Wilkerson - Thursday, October 2, 2008 - 3:11pm

I'm beginning in this area as well. While i've worked with sculpture for a long time this is my first metal venture. I'm taking a short workshop from the Torpedo Factory in Alexandria Va. The basic process you posted is consistent with what he is saying. He is also a student of the Japanese styles so I will try to get info to share on that as well.

Are you aware of anyone working with copper on grand scales? I have several pieces that would be approximately 18" x 30" in 12 guage sheet. Does anyone have any idea how size might impact the repouse process?

Bob
