This is a large copper frame that will have a mirror in it, I will patina it with an acid. The corners are mitered and then big welded. kind of tricky

I found some bird feeders down one day so the following day I bear proofed my property, including taking down bird feeders, The following night I set up some motion cameras, I was totally shocked when I came out to the back porch and saw 4 grizzly bears, Looked like two older cubs and two larger bears.
I will not feed the birds or do anything to invite another visit for the bears sake
Hi everyone, it has been a long time since my last post, I am going to try to keep up with posting once in a while and post things not only of my metal and art work but of things that are apart of my life,
below is a grizzly bear, I captured it on a trail camera. I was hiking earlier this summer and came across a large black bear in the same area. I thought it would be fun to set up a camera, I never expected to get such a great picture of such a magnificent specimen of a grizzly. I also got pictures of the black bear I will post later but my goodness, I was lucky. I hope you enjoy.
Hope everyone is having a great Summer, It is so hot and dry here in the NW. I think even the tourist would love to see some rain. Thank goodness the evenings are cool. And there is always a mountain lake to go to.
I have to start posting again, not much art work is going on but I think I will rededicate myself in the fall.

This is a custom frame we made with some exotic rosewood. as you can see the wood was too beautiful to square and miter like a traditional frame so we made a metal frame to the contour of the wood, we then used steel blocks in the corners,the steel was ground to the contour of the wood and then flame colored. as you can see I think the steel corners pulled the irregular wood together.
