High quality copper wind chimes and unique copper wall art.
I have been a full time, self-taught, copper artist for over 30 years in Florida, always striving for quality and originality. I exhibit and sell my work at art festivals, local markets and online. Before this time, I spent several years working in photofinishing, printing, a frame gallery and a few odd jobs. During these years I expressed my artistic side by working on creative projects at home, but I was not finding my full expression, fulfillment and potential through my occupations.
After 18 years I finally realized the solution was to begin my own business putting my artistic talents to work. I found there was a need for a durable, good sounding and aesthetically pleasing wind chime and began creating high quality wind chimes. Over the years I wanted to be more expansive with my artistic creations and in 2006 I began working on wall sculptures applying techniques and processes I had learned over the years working with copper.
Copper is a wonderful medium to work with. It has great versatility in its ability to be transformed with heating, hammering and chemical reactions. It is also very durable and has a nice warm energy, which is the main reason I chose it as a medium.
Even though being a self-employed artist is not the easiest job in the world, doing the work of five people, I would not give it up for anything. I love being an artist. The ultimate reward is when someone appreciates my work enough to purchase it and give it a new home.
