Copper Unicorn Fish

This "Kala"(unicorn fish) is formed in 24 gauge copper and measures 18 inches. I form the body in a wooden stake, and chase the lines with some chisels I've adapted. I solder a fin or two, and do a light heat treatment to get the orange color.

Anticlasic Raising in Free-Form

This is a piece of Copper scrap I found in my Studio, which was a negative from some flames I cut out a while ago. I filed down the edges, and used the Anticlastic technique to see how the shape would react to it. I got some amazing curves, and the transitions are smooth. With more practice, and a wider range of sinusoidal stakes I'm positive I will be able to create some amazing pieces.
