I prefer to keep my designs simple, using color and texture to create depth in tones and finishes. I use various hand-fabrication techniques including riveting, roll printing, forging and hydraulic forming. My work begins by forming a shape out of copper, applying texture and a chemical patina. This creates a blank canvas to apply the design with color using color pencils. The final piece is then sealed with wax and riveted to a base of oxidized silver.I try to push the limits of both techniques and materials. Sometimes it works. Sometimes it doesn’t. The process is the most important thing when I’m working. There’s something very Zen about it. At the end of the day, the result is satisfaction and hopefully a wearable piece of art.
