Copper 'Grass' Earrings

After plowing through the snow on the trail to give Oz his run I settled at my bench and got into my metal, experimenting with shape & texture. I hand cut the shapes (not the washers), used my new hammer and coated the copper to prevent tarnish.  I call them "Grass" as this is what pattern reminds me of.

I think next it is time to make soup and then a trek on the trails with the snow shoes so the trails are easier to walk.

Fire Painting on Copper

This is a process whereby it is impossible to foresee or duplicate the outcome.  One has to judge when to remove the piece from the flame, as the colours continue to develop until plunged into water.
