Artist Statement
The art of flame painting is a unique process of torch work. The heat from the torch causes the copper to patina into beautiful colors. There are no chemicals paints acids or stains used in this process. Unique grinding techniques are done before the heat is applied causing a shimmering effect to the art when light is applied. The copper is then wrapped around a custom built curved wood frame. After the piece is finished it is sealed with a special finish to prevent patina while also offering a UV protectant so that the piece may be displayed in the sun.
