copper!

I have to confess, I might have gotten just a wee bit bored with wood…and started hammering away at some copper.  (But I haven’t left wood for good–just taking a little breather.)  Here are a few things that materialized under my hammer:

I really dig the primal feeling I get from squatting on a rock (A.K.A. cement basement floor) and hammering my heart out.  I also hand-shaped the ear wires for these.  I have always loved copper, but I think I love banging it even more.   Maybe I’m not a blacksmith’s daughter for nothing. 🙂  Hope you like these–I’d love to hear what you think.

And these pieces are now in my shop–at Poco Leon Studio.
