Well Hello, 2019! You’re moving faster than my liking...but I am going to jump on board! This cold weather makes it harder to get motivated to go into my shop but once I do I’m in my element - creating again! The rest and relaxation of the holidays has left me refreshed to come back to my studio and do new pieces that will find their forever homes! I’ve been testing out some new methods to my patina. It’s interesting to find a balance between temperature conditions, time of patina, and methods of treatments. I use my instinct to know when a piece is finished. Some of my sample tests have lasted up to a week to achieve my desired result. I don’t mind the wait! It’s actually kinda fun! So stay tuned, NEW COLORS AND TEXTURES COMING SOON!

Maverick is an intricate part of the copper patina process! He provides constant love and encouragement to me while I work, and sometimes a cute distraction. Maverick is a 6 year old standard poodle with a kind (and energetic) human soul. Maverick's favorite things are jumping, sweet potatoes, long walks, and being petted. He enjoys being a copper expert and approves every custom piece that goes out of my studio door.  I mean who could resist this face?! My copper is Karla aged and Maverick approved!
