Lately, I have been thinking a lot about waterfalls as I was suppose to be leaving in a week to head up to the mountains, chasing waterfalls. Unfortunately, my trip has required rescheduling due to an aging pup. Can’t leave town and trust anyone else to take care of him in his time of need.I want to be here for him.

So, I will be going in the fall. I am drawn to waterfalls and love photographing them and thru a client commission, I came up with this idea of the blue waterfall for their living room. Their home is in the mountains and while I don’t know if they love waterfalls as much as I do, this amazing blue with the waterfall effects, will look stunning in their main room.

Abstract copper murals are very organic and I love the Wabisabi art style.

If you work with copper patina’s, you know how challenging it is, to pull that elusive red. I have experimented with it for years. And in all honesty, when I did get “that” red, it was generally by accident. Have been working very intentionally recently, as I have 2 commission orders, both requiring that red. Based on these samples, I think I’m about to own it! :-)

If copper art, kitchen backsplashes, bar tops, etc are something you are needing, please reach out.

Been working on some smaller copper art pieces as not everyone has large walls for my usual abstract copper wall murals. I’ve been drawn to this 6x24 size in vertical and horizontal layouts. All elements are copper that I created a patina on and just took pieces leftover from large jobs, and cut them to the layout that I wanted.

These smaller copper pieces, can be placed on a shelf or hung on a wall. My inspiration is my love for the mountains and how much I miss them.

This is a section from a large mural that a client asked me to create for a specific space in his home.. The final piece was very large and was added to his art collection.

It was my first attempt at creating 3D type art, where I created another layer of art on top of the copper patina background. Certainly had me step out of my comfort zone. lol. But was glad he gave me that opportunity and pushed me to create a piece that I would not have created otherwise.

“Forest Moonrise”- this piece has sold but getting ready to do a custom piece with this same look. I love how the teal contrasts with the golds and blacks along with the vertical lines creating a forest look.

Copper Patina has a wabisabi design style to it which makes makes it even more dramatic. Beuaty in imperfection. Celebrating the flaws.

This copper patina mural was totally inspired by the Buddhist Monks recent 2300 mile “Walk for Peace” pilgrimage, 2025/2026. I was so touched by the number of people that were moved by their walk, Aloka, the most buddhist dog in the world, and the compassion in their hearts. I loved every little, and big, thing about their pilgrimage.

While the type of art I create with copper patinas, doesn’t provide a way for me to create people, per se, the colors I was able to achieve, are the exact colors in their robes. I “may” add some fabric to this piece to try and create the monks profiles, an abstract version, or something. I guess I haven’t completely decided yet, which makes this piece still, a WIP. :)

Copper commissions always welcome for abstract wall art for your home or business.

This is another piece of copper patina abstract art that I just finished as part of my small works series. I am actually loving these small pieces especially since everyone doesn’t have the wall space available for my larger pieces. These also feel more intimate to me. And have their own small stories.

Commissions always welcome.

I’ve started playing around with much smaller pieces, primarily becaus, lets face it, not everyone has wall space to accommodate my large wall murals. This is the 1st one I have completed and its 6’ x 9’. I love these smaller pieces and sadly,I had to temporarily put a hold on creating these as we had a major ice storm in Nashville and its been a week of survival mode. Looks like I can pick back up next week as we will finally get able freezing.
