Signed, Sealed, Delivered!
I just finished this piece for my client and it's on it's way to her home! I hope she likes it! This customer saw my work at the Paul LeQuire & Co. gallery. She fell in love with the black and golds of the Carolina Summer piece (see the Copper Palates page for reference), but it wasn't the size she needed. She asked the gallery owner to commission me to do a custom piece for her. She wanted me to do something within those palate of colors on a larger scale. So, with nervous energy I went to my studio in hopes I could create the perfect compliment to her space.
There's always a little bit of an unknown in creating a custom work. I patina the copper and then wait. Then I decide if there's more that should be done or if the work is finished. I let the copper guide me. It will reveal itself when it's finished. I was delighted with the end result! I hope my client feels the same!
