"Copper Rain" - Copper Patina Mural

These panels were created to show the different hues of blues that can emerge from copper. It felt like it was a copper rain, here the name. It started out lightly and then got heavier as it went on.

Copper Patina is very much a Wabisabi Design Style. A style that embraces the natural flaws and imperfections to enhance the beauty of the final art.

These pieces have been SOLD and are on the way to a collector of my art in Travelers Rest, SC.

Custom Copper Commission

Working on a custom wall mural for a client here in Nashville, Howard Wiggnis. He’s pushing me out of my box to create a piece that compliments these colors he already has in place and making a 3D piece. I’m excited to get going on the next phase.

Copper Patina Mural section-

I’m working on a very large custom mural for a client and this is Phase 1 and only a section of it. He wants dark, bright colors and I think I nailed it for the background. I will be adding copper leaves, etc to the face of it. Stay tuned to see how the final piece comes to life. I love working on custom pieces as they give me an opportunity to think outside of my box. This one has been a little intimidating but becoming very excited about it.

This piece is for an Interior Deisgner who is an actual art collector.

Copper Patina Mural- "After Midnight"

This was the 1st large mural I did. It was actually a custom piece but the client wanted it to look more like another piece I did. I have never tried to sell it…..not sure why. Maybe sentimental???

I’ve recently pulled it back out and am entertaining selling it. I love that black and copper are the only colors in it. That’s really not easy to achieve. Not even sure I can do it again. :) A piece in these colors would look amazing as a kitchen backsplash!

Anyway, commissions always welcome. Nature is my inspiration.

Custom Copper Patina Mural

This copper mural showcases a series of vertical bars in varying hues of blue and rust, arranged in a manner that evokes the texture and form of tree trunks or weathered wood. The interplay of these colors creates a striking and visually engaging composition, emphasizing both contrast and harmony. The blue reads as an inviting aquatic tone, implying depth and fluidity, while the rust-colored sections add a warmth that is grounded and earthy. This juxtaposition of elements suggests a narrative of nature and decay, evoking emotional responses tied to time and transformation.

This was a custom piece for Kelly Maxwell Designs owner of Littlebranch Farms and will be showcased in his condo in Salt Lake City. Since the condo has a wall of windows that looks directly out onto the mountans, I was inspired to incorporate a series of trees in the piece while also pulling all the colors together as spec’d by his interior designer.

New Copper Logo

Gong to be on a show here in Nashville, called Bless Your Heart. They are featuring a couple pieces of my art and wanted a logo to project on the back wall. So, I came up with this the other day. I quiet satisfied with it. :-)

"Here Comes the Sun"- Copper Patina Wall Art

This copper mural is rather large @ 34” x 46”. My inspiration for this piece was based on the fact that I am obsessed with sunsets. lol. But I see the sun rising in this piece as Spring is unfolding and the grass is beginning to green once again. It’s always with much gratitude when I see the green grass coming back alive and the amazing sunrise colors.

This piece goes with most any wall color and is extremely organic looking. Its Wabi Sabi style is very appealing to me. An embracing of it’s imperfection and how that is its beauty. This piece along with some others are on the way to The Western Design Show in Jackson Hole, WY.

Commissions welcome!!

Copper Patina Wall Art- "Twin Falls"

Just finished this piece yesterday. It’s a 2 panel mural that is going to be heading out with some other pieces for The Western Design Conference (WDC) in Jackson Hole, WY. The greens are crystalized and just stunning. Of course, its not surprising that it has a waterfall look as I am so drawn to waterfalls.

Copper has such an uncanny ability to replicate these beautiful waterfall looks. Or it may be that subconsciously, I create them. :-)
