It wa so exciting to work "Kelce" into copper during the Super Bowl!! Working metal is a great stress reliever, and boy was that a stressful game! The sketching the image into the metal with slight pressure starts the process, then I work some masses from the back and others from the front, working until the metal stretches out a bit in 3D fashion. Each time I work a piece, I learn my tools a little more, and find better methods to achieve the result I desire. A little rubbing of the metal and antiquing the edges, and I'm done before I know it. I finished 4 different pieces during that game! Painting number 3700 in 3700 days.
