I have had the opportunity to create numerous custom mountain scenes over the last several years. As a rule, I try to create a piece that has an emotional attachment for the client.

This piece is actually not a custom piece, but rather is heading to a gallery in Hendersonville, NC and hopefully it will be the perfect piece for someone that crosses paths with it.

These were created to be used in a show in Bozeman, MT a few weeks ago. Then last week, Dolly Parton passed away, and I along with most of the world are grieving her passing, and she was the Queen of Butterflies. I am thinking about selling these and donating the profits to her imagination Library. It just seems to be a good fit for everyone.

What do you think?

I dropped off these 2 new copper patina murals at The Copper Fox Gallery, located in Leipers Fork, TN. Both very abstract and both evoking different emotions. The blue feels like waterfalls to me and the red one, a fiery sunset.

Both are very bold colors so your eye will definitely move to them when on a wall. Either would be a very conversational piece. For art wall murals, copper and metal patina’s create beautiful abstract art.

Just finished this triptych and it is going to the Western Design Conference Show in Bozeman, MT. This piece feels geological to me, representing the erosion of mountains which then are filled in with water. As in the canyons.

The teal is so vibrant and creates so much movement. These panels could stand alone or together. Wonderful mural for over a fireplace wall or 2 panels placed on each side of the fireplace. It can be an art piece that compliments a contemporary home, a beach house, a mountain home, etc. But would definitely need to be displayed in a. room with high ceilings to capture the dramatic effects of the patterns and colors.

This is a section of 3 murals I am working on, that are heading to a show in Bozeman, MT. Creating this to the Interior Designers specs. When you need a WabiSabi Art Style to compliment a western flair design. All pieces are organic in nature, the copper and the reclaimed custom wood furniture. Will post some pics once the booth is set up.

Abstract Art Murals, copper patina accent pieces, kitchen backsplashes, etc. Wow….can you imagine this as a Cooper backsplash?! I can! :-)

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.
