Three Trees In Copper

Threes Trees was commissioned by Steve and Janet Troy of Houston Tx. They were looking for a unique piece for their dinning room wall and fell in love with my new copper patinas and the Tree of Life motifs . Their dinning room wall is long and narrow and we decided that three 14″ x 16″ panels would graciously fill the space. The trees are filled with birds and some sit in grasses with a distant mountain range in the back ground.

Other than determining the size and the color of the boards that the copper is mounted on these three pieces were a total surprise. After I embossed the drawing onto the copper I placed the copper sheets into a patina bath. Once they are in the bath I had no control over the outcome. Each piece of copper comes out as a wonderful artistic surprise. I must admit that I love this type of process. I am equally amazed at peoples response to the different patinas. Often the ones I enjoy are not always the ones people have requested to purchase. I am curious of the three basic colors I have come to produce which one do you favor the most? You can see the three colors in the last photo below. I would love to get your feedback so just leave a comment in the box below this post.
