I really enjoy your art work. I have tried a similar piece with a setting sun over ocean waves using a thin foil. I never could get the coloring that you have achieved. What thickness copper did you use? Are there any special techniques you would be willing to share? You have sparked my interest to improve.

Thanks Don. This work is made from a copper sheet-22 gage i believe. My tempering and texturizing processes have taken a long time to uncover/learn/develop and are proprietary. Keep experimenting and wonderful things will evolve.
